converting from Org 6.1

[Domenick]

For the past decade, I've been using Lotus Organizer (not by choice - my
former employer was too cheap to go the MS route). I am now (finally) ready
to take the leap to Outlook 2007. Can anyone provide me with instructions
and/or tips on how to transfer all of my data from Lotus Organizer 6.1 to
Outlook 2007?

Thanks.

What formats will Organizer export to?

Org 6.1 will export:
-Text (ASCII Delimited & ANSI)
-DBF (dBase & FoxPro)
-vCalendar
-iCalendar
-Lotus iCalendar

I'm sure I could create a database of my info and manually bring it into
Outlook, but I'm looking for a "shortcut."

Organizer has a "Convert" utility that will take an Outlook file & transform
it into an Organizer file, but (of course) it will not do the opposite of
this. Does Outlook have a similar "convert" utility? Or, do you know of any
Add-ons or third party conversion utilities?

Thanks.

Does Organiser 6.1 use the same file format as 5.1? If so, then Outlook 2007
has an "import from Organizer 5.1" function....
