MS outlook 2002 transferring to Vista Mail

[Guest]

How can I transfer my Outlook Calendar and my Outlook contact to Vista
Calendar & contacts in a usable form?
I transferred all the folders using vista mails transfer; however it created
a folder for the calendar---it did not transfer the data onto the calendar.
It did the same for all my contacts. How do I transfer the data directly
into these 2 programs?
thank you

Well, for the contacts, you can export from Outlook to a CSV file, then
import into Windows Mail Contacts.

The calendar is a different story, since Outlook can't export to a .ics file
that Windows Calendar uses.

What I tried... and it seemed to work...

In Outlook (I have version 2003), export to a CSV file.

Went to my calendar on Gmail.com
import the CSV file to Google calendar
export to .ics file (had to use help for these two steps, as it's not
straightforward)

Windows Calendar:
import the .ics file

THANKS! I was able to do the calendar! The contacts are tricker for me, as
I couldn't retrieve all the info in the comments.
Thanks so much for your help!
