Q168182: XCLN: Wizard Doesn’t Migrate Schedule+ Info to Outlook Calendar

Article: Q168182
Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): WinNT:4.0,5.0,5.5
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): kbusage
Last Modified: 28-APR-1999

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5, 0, 5.5 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

The Exchange Server Migration Wizard allows administrators to migrate accounts,
mail messages and Personal Address Books to Outlook. However, the Migration
Wizard does not allow for the direct import of Schedule+ 1.0 Schedule
information into Outlook Calendar information. Currently, mass migration of
Schedule + 1.0 directly to Outlook Calendar files is not supported. Microsoft is
aware of this issue and will be offering a workaround as soon as it is
available.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, do one of the following:

- Directly import the original Schedule + 1.0 CAL file into Outlook.

  NOTE: There can be problems attempting to perform this direct conversion

  For additional information on the direct conversion, please see the following
  article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  -OR-

- Install Schedule + 7.x, convert the migrated schedule information into
  Schedule + 7.x file format, export the calendar from Schedule + 7.x, and then
  import this information into Outlook.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Microsoft supports the mass migration of Schedule+ 1.0 to Schedule+ 7.0. For
users migrating from Schedule+ 1.0 to Schedule+ 7.0, the Exchange Migration
Wizard migrates the Schedule+ 1.0 data by attaching your data to a message,
which is migrated to your Exchange Inbox. This message is then recognized as a
Schedule+ 1.0 file and is upgraded to the Schedule+ 7.0 format. Outlook does not
have the ability to recognize this migrated schedule information and therefore
cannot convert it to Outlook Calendar information.
