Entourage does have a File --> Import... command but I'm not sure if it
will understand these are calendar events. Usually, the CSV format is
used to import contacts instead.

Unless you know how to write AppleScript or can get the schedule as an
..ics file, I suspect you'll be stuck entering them manually.

Did you try double clicking it? If Entourage can open it, you can save it.
Sorry this is such a weak answer. This hasn't come up before. There is
nothing in Help about this.

You might want to look at Paul Berkowitz's Export Import scripts. They
should do what you want.

I just tried it previous to your reply. It did put the information in, but not in quite the way I was expecting. My next question is "How to remove it".

"Be careful what you wish for......

Thanks for your help.

Use the Custom views for the Calendar to set the data you want deleted.
Delete from the custom view.

This will get rid of everything.

Do a Find for events whose subject contains "a" OR subject does not contain
"a" - this will find every event (there may be a custom view already created
called 'all events', which you could use instead).

Select an event, then do a 'select all' and hit the delete key. All events
will be deleted.

You might want to bookmark the Calendar FAQs for help in the future.
