MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / January 2008Re-Post: Import Excel files into Outlook
I'm trying to import Excel data into Outlook 2003 calendar, but when I click on "Import from another program or file," Excel doesn't show up on the list. I've re-loaded Outlook...made sure that the Excel translator is installed...and done everything else I can think of...but the only programs listed are Act, comma-separated value, dBase, ECCO, and Lotus Notes. Can anyone help? This is a re-post from an earlier post, as the first one doesn't appear in the Discussion Group threads. Thanx!

Thanx! Use the Office installation wizard to add the Excel importers and exporters. SignatureBrian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] I've done this...twice! Yet still, no Excel.

No need to repost - I was still watching your original post. You never bothered to answer the first diagnostic question I asked you. Here it is again. Are your copies of Excel and Outlook the same verion eg 2003 or 2007? How did you go running diagniostics? Here are some tips about how to post questions: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=555375 Regards Judy Gleeson MVP Outlook Trainer and Consultant There are various articles about using Outlook here: www.judygleeson.com/articles.aspx Canberra, Australia "What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?"

Sorry, Judy...for some reason, I was never notified of any responses (even tho I checked "Notify me of replies.") OK: both Excel and Outlook are 2003, purchased as part of Office XP Professional. I did not run any specific diagnostics other than checking Help files on both Outlook & Excel, and checking the MS support pages and the discussion groups. However, here's what I did: ran "Detect & Repair" from Outlook; then inserted the Office disc and from Setup, checked the "Add & Remove Features" to make certain the Outlook translators were installed (which they were). Also ran "Repair Office." Nothing made any difference at all.

Office XP versions are all 2002. Office 2003 versions are all 2003. Please clarify. SignatureMilly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

(I've also ordered Office 2007, which should hopefully solve the problem. We'll see........)
