Hello,

I just started using Outlook Calendaring 2007 after using MS Works 6, from
which I imported reminders. I discovered that the recurrence of each
reminder from Works wasn't in the Outlook Calendar. In other words all
reminders were repeated at the interval of the recurrence I had in Works but
there was nothing in the Recurrence Pattern column in Category view. In
fact there are no reminders after 12/31/2007, even though I spefcified in
Works to export every reminder through 12/31/2100. Is there some way to
import and get the recurrence instead of the individual reminders? And how
do I get all my reminders instead of just the first year?

Bob

Does works have an option to import through a specific date? if not, you'll
need to go through and reset the reminders.

What I did was export from Works 6.0 and import that file into Outlook 2007.
In Works, I did specify the date through which to import.
