Pending: Outlook Import Destination Folder List Blank

scubatke · 09-22-2009

Greetings. I need to add onto my calendar multiple recurrences of an appointment that occur at irregular intervals. I thought the easier way to put these on my Outlook 2003 SP3 calendar would be to create an Excel file and import the file into Outlook. When I go through the import process, everything is fine until I get to the screen where I am supposed to select the destination folder, There are no choices available - it's blank. My only options are 'back' or 'cancel'. This is VERY frustrating. Can someone tell me how I can resolve this problem?

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi scubatke,
I'll mark this as Open to encourge a response from those who will have the answer.

Thanks for your patience

Hello Scubatke!

I've got Outlook 2003 at the office. I will check this out for you tomorrow. Please BUMP me if I delay too long

Some days I just lose track

Before you even select IMPORT, what is highlighted in your Outlook shortcut bar?

If I select CALENDAR, then my Destination is populated with the calendar options.

Thanks for your interest DCi. To be clear, you are referring to the 'Folder List', right?

I have tried making sure that 'calendar' was selected and alternatively that something other than 'calendar' was selected. I received the same results every time.

Okay, that means research time

I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks for your patience!
