To start you will need to export your Outlook calendar. While in Outlook select “file” and then you will see the option to import or export, select that option and from there choose “export a file.” Select “comma separated values” and then click “next.” Highlight the calendar that you want to export and then hit “next.” Name the file and save its location and hit next again. Make sure that you check the option to export appointments from folder: calendar. Then click “finish.” When you are prompted to set the date range you will want to select about a year. If you want to select multiple years you will need to repeat these steps and name each file differently.
