I sent this out last tuesday and no responses so far, just about 5 people
emailing me to ask if I had gotten any answers which tells me there is a lot
of interest in this question. If anyone has any knowledge in this subject
matter, please do tell the rest of us as we are eager for an answer . . .

thanks,

tim

p.s. several people asked about the vCal standard -- it can be found here:

Subject: Import Appointments into Outlook using Perl and vCalendar


Hello all,

At our lab we constantly have emails sent out in the form:

7-15 Jan        Testing of Product X         (POC:  Joe Smith)  Room 265
2 Jan   Leaders Meeting              (POC: John Doe)    Room 121
8 Jan   Review               (POC: Tom) Room 30

I am trying to take these word documents and create some time of vCalendar
file so I can automatically import all of these dates into a personal
information manager (such as Outlook or Palm). As it is everyone is
laboriously adding these things to their respective calendars or manually
inputting this information into Outlook.

Does anyone know of a module that takes inputs and generates vCalendar
files. Is there a better way to do this?

Any thoughts?

tim
