Is it possible to import .ics or .vcs files into Outlook into an additional
calendar, not the main Outlook calendar?

Double-click the file to open it, then click File>Move to Folder and specify
the calendar where it should go.

I tired this by making a calendar with three weeks of tasks and
appointments. When I tried to load the file into a test calendar not
the default, only the first days entry was imported.
Outlook 2003

When I tried this, it only added the first calendar item to the Outlook
Calendar folder. I have many apointments to add. Is there a way to do the
entire .vcs at one time?

Not in outlook 2003 or earlier. Only outlook 2007 supports multi-events ics
files.

Thanks for all the feed back. I did find out a little curiousity while
experimenting with a .ics file that was generated from 2007. When I
import the file using the File >> Import in Outlook 2003. The multiple
events are loaded into the master calendar. Although this is not
exactly what I wanted I decided to isolate the events in a different
view, then select the events and copy them into a new calendar.

Not too efficient, but the next step is to see if this can be
automated. Never satisfied.

Is there any way to import a full year calendar file into Outlook 2003 and
put it in a separate calendar in my Personal Folders?

Where is this calendar, and in what format?

How exactly did you isolate the events so that yo ucould transfer just the
right ones to your secondary calendar? Thanks.
