iCal double trouble
 
Hi, I'm importing iCal files in my outlook 2000 calendar, the
calendars I import are subjective to change, so I need to reimport
them. According to the iCal rfc this should be possible since it is
possible to change events.. However when I reimport the stuff I get
double events.. So I need to manually delete the old ones... Again the
rfc states that they should be overwritten (given the UID is the same
and the SEQUENCE property is increased)... Am I making a thinking
error here?? Or are my iCal files corrupt?

iCal double trouble
 
You're expecting too much of Outlook. It doesn't perform updates during iCal imports.
