I have a ton of information in CSV format that I exported from FMNOT, and I
can't see how to get it into Windows Calendar..

In Windows calendar. file-import/export doesn't list CSV format?
Try Mozilla Sunbird, a standalone calendar that will do things that
Outlook doesn't, like email reminders.

Ok, I have downloaded it and tried it, but it didn't seem to import the csv
file with all my info.

Add an item to Sunbird, and export to a csv file. Open both with a
spreadsheet application and compare the two.

I tried to import the csv file, no errors nothing.

I entered a BD and then exported the file.

Only the entered items showed up.

All entries show up in Excell when I open the csv file I exported from fmnot.

Yes but did you compare the *FORMATS* of the two? I.e are your field
headers the same, etc etc? Are there blank lines in the main csv file
etc etc.

Ok, I see. The formats are different, so Sunbird can use my data from fmnot.
I was hoping there was a program that would accept it so I wouldn't have to
input all of it again.

There's a roundabout way.....
Windows Calendar can only import .ics (not .csv or .pst)

Create a calendar on Gmail.com
import the CSV file to Google calendar
export to .ics file (use the Help for these two steps, as it's not
straightforward)

Windows Calendar:
import the .ics file

You don't have to re-input - just format the fmnot csv file so it's in the
same format as the csv file you exported from Sunbird. Once you do that,
then there should be no reason why Sunbird should not import the file....

setup.exe>Properties>Compatibility Tab> installing in XP SP2 mode?
