Outlook Calendar to Windows Calendar
Okay, I tried going through all the posts so as to not duplicate questions,
but I couldn't seem to find the answer to this question. I've have purchased new laptop running Vista and loaded with Microsofts Works. My old desktop ran Windows XP and had MS Office 2002 w/Outlook. I had all my past calendar appointments loaded in Outlook and can not seem to find a way to export them and load them on my new laptop. I've tried saving them as a .PST file, but that didn't work. The laptop accesses mail and the calendar through Windows now rather than Office. I know that there is a calendar within MS Works but it does not import appointments and calendar events from MS mail like MS Calendar. Is anyone following any of this? |

Outlook Calendar to Windows Calendar
Windows Calendar only supports import and export from an ics (ICalendar)
file. With Outlook 2002 you'd need something like this: "Outlook to iCal Export Utility" http://sourceforge.net/projects/outlook2ical/ to export to an acceptable iCal format. I haven't tried it so the testing is up to you. Outlook 2007 has better native ICal support. -- Bill R "Rob" wrote in message ...

Try it. Not much has changed.

Outlook Calendar to Windows Calendar
Should I go back and load MS Office 2002 w/Outlook on this new PC with Vista?
If so, can I just remove MS Works from the Remove program utility in the Control Panel?

There are Vista/Outlook 2002 incompatibilities that do not allow it to retain account passwords. Other than that, it should work. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
