*.ics Help
24 October 2008, 05:06
Mornin', all 
I'm using the following *.ics file to add multiple dates to iCalendar apps. such as Outlook and iCal. It works fine with iCal but willonly add the first date to Outlook - can anyone see where I'm going wrong? Also, being as this is my first time working with *.ics files, any tips as to things I should be doing differently or adding to the file would be much appreciated<

Hi Shaggy,
well, it's quite easy to find a path.
First of all what is the Outlook version that you are importing? Cause older versions do not import multiple events in one file.
That said, you can use is Outlook 2 iCal to export multiple events and then see how the file was builed... change and import again and see if you can import multiple events.
if you can do this, then you have the source file to tell you how can you accomplish it
hope it helps<
