From: "Joshua Lee" on 29 Jun 2010 09:09 If you are using outlook in a corperate environment, then so am I and this is how I just got around it. I use OpenOffice, instead of MicrosoftOffice. I got the exchange server admin to turn on the MSExchange iMap module on. I use thunderbird to get my email from the exchange server. I actually had to download and install active perl onto my windows machine. Then I tested this perl script: http://rasterweb.net/raster/2004/09/10/20040910110000/ Then I wrote a bat file (simply calling the perl script and writing the output to a calendar file) Then I setup Sunbird as my calendar, referenced my work calendar, and told it to reload external calendars every 10 minutes. I did all this because I have a home office and a DC office. I work from home half the time but hate Microsoft products, so when at home, I utilize as much open source stuff as I can. ________________________________ Joshua R.

I would like to get away from using MS Office but I need some way to get all the information stored in the 'outlook.pst' Outlook file from MS Office over to OpenOffice. Is there a way, while in OpenOffice, to import the information in the 'outlook.pst' file into OpenOffice? If not, do you have a suggested email client I should use that would simulate MS Outlook? I would like to get my Contact and Calendar information from the 'outlook.pst' file into OpenOffice as well. Do you know of an 'extractor' that would extract mail, contacts, calendar, etc. from a ..pst file?

P.S. I just found an update to that calendar thing. I know this isn't OpenOffice, but in your message you did mention the calendar in outlook. http://rasterweb.net/raster/2010/06/28/ This might help you, it might not. I hope it does. ________________________________ Joshua R.
