Thanks for the response Brian. I'm very thankful for the service you are providing.
I found the problem. Outlook is expecting the vevent component to have UID and DTSTAMP parameters. I took a look at RFC2445 and I think I found a conflict. Where the UID and DTSTAMP parameters are described the rfc says "Conformance: This property MUST be included in the "VEVENT", "VTODO", "VJOURNAL" or "VFREEBUSY" calendar components". However, the format definition starting on page 51, seems to indicate that the UID and DTSTAMP parameters are optional. So, does the XSLT file need to be changed or do I need to author these parameters into my hCalendar markup? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of brian suda Sent: Friday, December 09, 2005 10:05 AM To: Microformats Discuss Subject: Re: [uf-discuss] Ics import in Outlook Webb, Geoffrey Lawrence wrote: > I have been using the service at suda.co.uk to harvest hCalendar > events from my web pages.

Feel free to start an iCal page[2] and document your finds with your OS version, application version etc. This will help other replicate and fix the problems.
