Problem with Outlook 2002 not reading iCalendar file correctly

I have made an iCalendar file that I have on a WebDAV server and I want
multiple users to use. I have 2 questions:
1. Is there a way to link Outlook to the .ics file dynamically (i.e. so that
changes to the file are reflected in the users Outlook schedule) as is
possible with other calendar applications
2. One of the users is complaining that, after saving the file to his drive
and then importing the file, his Outlook 2002 is only importing some entries
and it complains about the format even though the format is 100% correct. Is
there a patch or something that I can give him to get his Outlook 2002 to
understand the iCalendar format?

1) No.=20

2) I've seen Outlook not handle some iCalendar items. If it were my =
application, I'd pick the file apart to see what might be causing =
Outlook not to handle some items and then would try to work around that =
cause.=20
