exporting calender to another PC

S

Simsy

having exported the calender as suggested by Microsoft, we have found it to
lose much of the notes - we suspect that this is down to putting dotted
lines, or certain types of line breaks but we dont know. we now have a diary
with lots of half notes! any ideas?

Don't export, just copy the .pst from the old Outlook to the new and use
File->Open->Outlook Data File. Exporting will consistently lose items and
is meant for "translating" Outlook data to a non-Outlook program. Once
opened in the new Outlook, you can drag and drop items from the old calendar
to the new (hint - use a table view on the old, select all and drag to the
new calendar FOLDER and release.)
