"select folder to export from" dialog is blank when trying to export calendar,
 
I'm using Outlook 2003 on XP Pro. I go to Import-Export and choose
'Export to a file.' I'm then presented with a format to export to,
such as comm-separated, pst, and so on. If I choose any format but
pst, then the next dialog, "Select folder to export from," is blank!
What am I missing?

Thanks.

Before getting into the problem, can you say why you wish to export?
Perhaps there's another way to transfer the data without exporting.

I'm trying to copy my calendar entries to Google calendar, which won't
read pst files directly, but *will* read csv files.

Well, then, you're correct. You'll need to be able to export to that
format. As you surmise, you should see the folder list, with the currently
viewed folder being highlighted. Have you tried HelpDetect and Repair? A
new mail profile might fix the issue as well.

I had the same problem and found this workaround:

- Export your calendar to a .pst file
- Do again the export but select now the desired csv format. The list
of folders should now appear.

I don't know why but it seems doing a pst export somehow repair
Outlook.

Hope it work for you too.
