Any Calendar to Outlook Application

Post by hballin »

The application is waiting for appointment and task data file(s) to import it into Outlook.
  • Appointment data
The application is waiting for an appointment file like “Export.ics” or a collection of appointment files (*.ics) in a specific folder. If the file is getting in, it grabs the file and creates/update appointments in MS Outlook.
  • Task data
The application is waiting for a task file like “Export.csv” or a collection of task files (*.csv) in a specific folder. If the file is getting in, it grabs the file and creates/update appointments in MS Outlook.

The application is locally installed and works in the background unattended.
