64Q: 67Q:
65I cannot sync Outlook with Sharp-DTM. How can I get my data from Outlook?
66A:
67There is a tool called Outport.
68With that tool you can export your Outlook data to many small .ics files.
69To get one big .ics file to able to import the data quickly in KO/Pi
70you can do the following on Linux:
71cat *.ics > mycalendar
72mv mycalendar mycalendar.ics
73Now you have one file, but kopi cannot read it.
74You have to remove all lines in the file
75(take a texteditor where search and replace is done quickly ) which are:
76BEGIN:VCALENDAR
77END:VCALENDAR
78Only the very first
79BEGIN:VCALENDAR and the very last
80END:VCALENDAR may remain in the file.
81Now KO/Pi can read the modified file.
