I've been able to import calendar data, such as from an Excel file into my
Outlook personal calendar. Is it possible to import data into a shared
calendar? When I tried to do this using the import wizard, no shared folders
appeared on the destination folder list. I'm guessing that only the owner
of a shared folder would be able to see a shared folder in this destination
list?

Thanks.

No, you can't. You can import to your own and either assign a category
before importing or use the created date to identify the imported items then
move them.

Or create a special calendar file into which you can import, and then move
the entire contents.
