Editor: Eric Bischoff
Revision 3.1 (2002-10-17)

This version of the KOrganizer workshop “Outlook to vCalendar” was released on October 17, 2002. See the ChangeLog for details.

Please note that the descriptions and screenshots refer to version 3.1 of KOrganizer.

Overview

When moving from Microsoft® Outlook(R) to using KDE's KOrganizer to manage schedules and appointments, you will probably wish to export your scheduling data from Outlook(R) and import it into KOrganizer. Microsoft®'s Outlook(R) program does provide an export option that can save an appointment to the industry standard vCalendar format.

Unfortunately, Outlook(R) will only export the appointment you have selected, one at a time. This is fine if you only wish to transfer a few appointments, but transferring the 200-300 appointments you may have in your Outlook(R) folder would not be much fun. Therefore, Randy Pearson created a small application named Outlook2VCal that can scan and export all the appointments to a vCalendar file at one time.
