How do you import data from a lotus file with .OR6 ext?

[donalbert]

I have been using Lotus Organizer for years and am switching to Outlook and
want to import my calendar.OR6 file. My version of outlook only allows
importing of .OR5 file. Is there a way I can update my outlook version. I
called Microsoft tech support and was charged $35 and never received an
answer or a reply after several emails.

I have been using Lotus Organizer for years and am switching to
Outlook and want to import my calendar.OR6 file. My version of
outlook only allows importing of .OR5 file. Is there a way I can
update my outlook version. I called Microsoft tech support and was

Call Microsoft with the SRX number you received via e-mail and complain.

You haven't mentioned your version of Outlook, but the only way you can
'update' your Outlook version (besides patches/SPs which likely won't affect
this at all) is to upgrade it. However, I'm using OL2003 and all I see in
the import/export options are Organizer versions 4 and 5.

In Organizer, is there any way to either 'save as' or export your data to
the previous .or5 version? If not, what formats *can* you export to?

NB: In the future, best to provide full detail of your software
versions/service pack level, etc.
