Who the f--- are you kidding? You're the one who brought their group into your manufactured "debate", troll. That one MSO fanboy happened to support your insane statement doesn't add much to the debate, unless you would take his word for it just to suit your agenda (which it appears you would). -- Joel Crump

I am right - you are a joke of a Linux user, and Outlook along with all of MSO is a complete piece of trash, and my suggested method does work. I stand by it all. -- Joel Crump

If you only need to move *some* data to another outlook, say calendar and contacts, then exporting to a pst is fine. Moving a multi-GB pst for 200 contacts is nuts and exporting recurring calendar items to another format removes the recurrences. Also, if the person uses Copy to move the data into the new pst, everything that import breaks is broken by Copy. Only Move will reserve the properties. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: mailto:dailytips-subscribe-request(a)lists.outlooktips.net EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: mailto:EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQUEST(a)PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Do you sync your mailbox with a smartphone or pda? http://forums.slipstick.com/showthread.php?t=39473 "Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]" <tillman1952(a)yahoo.com> wrote in message news:#LScpja0KHA.4832(a)TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > "Joel" <joelcrump(a)gmail.com> wrote in message > news:qoa9r5h5mj3vvhekeskq33d4lufi37f2iq(a)4ax.com... > >> I guess that's why I've done it that way multiple times, for a family >> member who actually uses Outlook for God knows what reason, and has >> changed computers multiple times, and it didn't "corrupt" anything. >> And I guess you enjoy using a product that you claim "corrupts" files >> for absolutely no good reason.

Yeah... when the Exchange admin uses Exmerge, they are importing/exporting. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: mailto:dailytips-subscribe-request(a)lists.outlooktips.net EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: mailto:EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQUEST(a)PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Do you sync your mailbox with a smartphone or pda? http://forums.slipstick.com/showthread.php?t=39473 "Tom Willett" <tom(a)youreadaisyifyoudo.com> wrote in message news:eRu5Zta0KHA.6108(a)TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Perhaps sometimes with some people, but not all the time, nor most of the > time.
