I cannot import calendar from Windows 98 computer to XP

DEBNC

I am trying to export my calendar off of my laptop (Windows 98) and import it
to my desktop (Windows XP). I have no trouble exporting and getting it on
the desktop but when I try to import it I receive a message that says:
"Calendar couldn't add appointments....If Calendar is still unable to import
from this file, this file may not be usable." However, I have tried several
times to use different exported files and none of them work. Help?!!!!

Why are you trying to export a native Outlook file? SImply copy the .pst,
open it in your new installation of Outlook and make it your default.

I don't understand what you mean by an Outlook file. It is not an Outlook
file as far as I know. I did a direct cable connect to move my exported
Microsoft Office Calendar file from my laptop to my desktop.
