Default Allow import of a vcs file into an additional calendar

Outlook should let you choose which calendar you want to import your .vcs
file into. I want to use multiple calendars, and I have a vcs file to
import, but I don't want it imported into the default calendar. When
importing, allow the user to choose which calendar to import into.

Double-click the .vcs to open it and then click FileMove to Folder instead
of Save and Close.

Default Allow import of a vcs file into an additional calendar

Brian, Thanks for this response. That does work, partially. The .vcs file
that I have has multiple appointments, but when I double-click to open it, it
only opens the first appointment, which I can "Move to Folder", but then I'm
not prompted to enter the rest of the appointments. Is there something that
I am doing wrong, or did the person who created the file, do it wrong?

Thanks

Since a vCalendar file is just a text file, you can open it in Notepad and
manually separate it into multiple files and then open each with Outlook.
Laborious, perhaps, by it should work.

A future version will handle this better.
