importing data into outlook
I work in an environment that relies heavily on an outdated data entry
system. Recently, my boss suggested that he'd like to be able to import event data from this outdated system into our outlook calendar. The outdated system is able to export information into a text file. Is there a simple way to import that data into the outlook calendar? Do I need to figure out how to convert it into an ical file or someting similar? If so, can anyone suggest an online tutorial or guide on creation of such files? Thanks for the help!

If the text file is comma-delimited, you can import it with Outlook's File | Import and Export command.
