export non-english outlook calendar to csv, import other calendars

Hi,
If I export a non-english outlook calendar to csv (DOS) I obviously end
up with a bunch of words that another application doesn't know what
means, is there some tool that has mapped the fields of the CSV to the
original english field names so I can convert from the non-english to
the english and from there to my other calendars.

The language I am using is Danish.

Sure. It's called "Excel". Enter the corresponding English values.

What are the corresponding english values and where does one find them
is the pertinent question then? I can of course translate the danish to
english but am willing to bet that my translation will differ from
microsoft's from english to danish.

Ask someone you know who has an English version to perform an export so you
can see what values will be expected. I'll be that person. I just exported
my calendar and these are the headings Outlook produced:

Subject, Start Date, Start Time, End Date, End Time, All day event, Reminder
on/off, Reminder Date, Reminder Time, Meeting Organizer, Required Attendees,
Optional Attendees, Meeting Resources, Billing Information, Categories,
Description, Location, Mileage, Priority, Private, Sensitivity, Show time as
