Import Excel events, dates info to iCal

I cannot seem to find the easy way to import excel events, dates, birthday, games etc. into iCal. There has to be an easy way.

Hi jkuyio
1. Regarding the connection string and the provider, are you using 64 bit or 32 bit?
2. By the way, Your question is not related to this forum i think. I mean you can use SSIS for this and work with SQL Server database as well but i think this is not the right way to do it!
In any case you can check this link for more information on connecting the MySQL from SSIS:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mattm/archive/2008/03/03/connecting-to-mysql-from-ssis.aspx
* Basically you can connect to any data source that you have the right data provider.
** Data from Excel spreadsheet can be exported to a new MySQL database table directly, by using the Export Excel Data to New Table optionhttp://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/mysql-for-excel-export.html
** Data can be import into the MySQL as well:
http://www.w3resource.com/mysql/exporting-and-importing-data-between-mysql-and-microsoft-excel.php
I hope this is useful :-)

  • Calender on the pre can not import calender events from OL or ICAL

    You know what be really cool? .I can forwared calender events from OL to Ical & visa a versa. The calender on either machine will recoginize the event & import it. I send it through my gmail account. The calender on the PRE does not have the ability to open it & place it in the calender. It does not recogonize it. I wish it did. That be cool.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Well, I found the answer to my problem. I can add events to my OL. OL will sync with google calender. Google calender will sync with my phone automatically. This works great.!

  • How do I import Excel cell data in to an already built custom list.

    I have a custom list that we are using as an End Of Shift Report.
    I would like to expand the list to incorporate some of our process data. (We are a paper mill). We have a data historian, PI Process Book, that has an Excel add-in, that allows us to import the process data in to Excel.
    I am able to do the "import spreadsheet" function and get the data in to a new list. What I can't figure out is either how to import directly in to the custom list I have already created, or how to import from the new list to the custom list.
    I could use the "new list" as a container for several different process points if I could figure out how to load the process data in to the custom list.
    We are currently using WSS3, but are upgrading in either the 4th Q this year, or Q1 2014.
    Any other suggestions on how to display single point data (End of Shift Inventory calculations for example) in a custom sharepoint list are welcome.
    I want to take a tank level reading, which we monitor and multiply it by X gallons per foot, then load the total gallons in to the custom list

    1) Open WSS List, and Export it to Excel
    2) Open the Excel file you want to import
    3) Copy the cells in the source and paste them into the Excel file openned from the WSS List (only highlight one row to paste, it will fill down)
    4) You will see vaildation errors (yellow triangles), if there are any, correct them
    5) In the menubar go Data --> List --> Sync List
    6) You will see a blue status bar fill in the bottom left as data is copied up to the List   
    Or you can try the below tools

  • When importing DV, Event dates jumbled and incorrect. How to correct dates?

    When I import DV tapes into iM 08 the date that I imported them was correct and putting them in order under the year 2007. Then at about my 16th tape the Event went under the year 2016 then the next one 2019 then the next one 2002????? How can I reset the dates to put the imports back into the right order with the right dates?
    One more question: I accidently added an imported DV to an existing event. Is there anyway to seperate them into seperate events as they should have been?
    Thanks

    To split an Event:
    In the Event that you want to divide, click the clip that you want to become the first clip of the new Event.

  • Converting/Importing Now  Up To Date files to iCal

    Is there a way to import all my Now Up To Date info into iCal?

    Brad,
    Since you used the word "convert" it implies to me that you are moving from the windows version.
    If that is true, you may find some help at Now Software Support.

  • Adding all day events using applescript to ical

    Hey all. I am new to using applescript. Thanks to some top users i have been able to get excel events file transfered into ical.
    I need help with the applescript for changing these events from time duration to all day.
    tried
    set the start time to 00:00 and end time to 24:00 and
    set all-day to true
    any help would be greatly appreciated!!
    thanks.

    I have the exact same problem. I have entered birthdays for people I know starting with the year of their birth and never ending, an all-day event. They now don't show in 2007, but there is a detached event on January 1, 2000. When I delete that event and all subsequent versions of it, the initial event now ends in 2006 or 2007, and I have to set the repeat to end Never again. I fixed all the ones from February that showed up. Now I notice that a huge amount of the other birthdays (all day events) that I have entered are doing it now, and we are talking well over 40 of them. I don't understand why it keeps creating these detached events. I also publish my calendars, if that makes any difference.

  • Import Excel 2007 into SQL Server 2005

    Hi
    When importing Excel 2007 data into sql via Import wizard:

    This is not a problem in SSIS, this is a problem occuring when I try to import data via the Import/Export wizard in Management studio.
    This is the exact error I get:

  • New Server - Not Getting Event.Data back

    Its a weird problem i'm having. I've setup a brand new server (Original was a shared hosting setup from godaddy).
    I'm using my same application
    And i'm not getting event.data info back (in XML form)
    Here's an example:
    private function onUploadCompleteData(event:DataEvent):void {
    updateStatus(event.data, _numCurrentUpload - 1);
    var x:XML = new XML(event.data.toString()); <---- NOT FIRING
    Application.application.upAvatar = "/profile/" + x.name;
    Does anyone have any ideas? I was thinking it could be a misconfiguration with my apache settings.
    I'm using:
    Ubuntu
    Apache2
    PHP5
    CURL
    Thanks..

    hi,
    have you placed a fault event handler on your request to see what error if any is being returned ?

  • Importing Now Up To Date Calendar into iCal

    I have been using NUTD for ten years. It is now starting to crash often with the latest OS software. So I would like to import my entire NUTD calendar into iCal. However, I cannot figure out how to do this. I have looked at discussions on the subject, but they all seem to be several years old. Any new ideas on doing this? I have a Bed and Breakfast and need the past ten years calendar info, plus the reservation info that goes out three year from now. So I need to import 13 years worth of calendar data.

    I just did a full migration from Now Up-to-Date to iCal and was successful using a tip obtained elsewhere. The key is to pass the data through Excel and Palm Desktop. Now can't export vCal yet and iCal won't import tab delimited text. However, Palm Desktop can import tab-delimted text and export vCal.
    I don't think you can successfuly create multiple iCal calendars from the Now categories going through Palm Desktop; I didn't try that. To make sure it worked out, I did it using multiple export/imports doing one Now category at a time by passing it through Excel. Here's a summary of the steps:
    1. Export your date rage from Now in tab-delimited format.
    2. Open the export file in Excel, sort by category.
    3. Extract all entries for each category into separate workbooks, save each as tab-delimited text file format.
    4. Open Palm Desktop and create a new calendar for the category (e.g business, personal, special events, etc.) Save it in a temp place like your desktop.
    5. Import the text file to the new Palm Desktop calendar
    6. Export from Palm Desktop to a vCal file
    7. Create a new calendar in iCal for the category to be imported
    8. Import the vCal file into that calendar.
    Repeat steps 4-8 for each Now category.
    There were some anomolies I couldn't explain (like some single-day all-day events becoming two-day events in iCal), but I just cleaned those up manually.
    Repeating events in the Now Calendar will become multiple single events in iCal. Also, if you have any commas in titles or notes, the process of passing through Excell wil put " " around those entries in iCal. If this bothers you, you could pass the saved Excel text files (from step 3) through a text editor (Text Wrangler works best, TextEdit should do it also) to delete the quotes if you want.

  • Found iCal events in Time Machine.  Now Lion only allowing me to import one event at a time.

    Upgrade my macbook pro over the weekend to Snow Leopard and then Lion.   I lost all my the majority of my iCal events.   Went to Apple store and they said that was rare and not sure how to restore my last back up from Time Machine on an external drive.   I've been spending hours trying to go through a bunch of threads on different MAC formums.  
    So I finally found my iCal events in Time Machine.   When I try to import these events, I am only allowed to highlight/import one event at a time.   This will take me forever to import years of missing data.   I basically have been using my iCal to journal for my 3 small daughters - first tooth, hair cut, etc.   So I am desperate to get these events back so I can get them printed and SAFE.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to import my ics files?   The Apple Store Genius had me tryng to import the corestorage.ics files.   2 or 3 of those files showed they were trying to be imported for over 4 hours.   I finally Forced Quit iCal.   I've tried this several times and same result. 
    The corestorage files were under user/library/application support/ical/sources
    I now located the calendar events user/library/calendars/ then a bunch of coded files leading to the events.  These events appear to be the ones I am looking for as I can read some of the files.   I have several years I want to import back into my working iCal.  
    Please help if you know how!!!
    Thank you,
    Very Upset Mama of 3 little girls

    Thomas - You are awesome - THANK YOU!  
    I did exactly what you said (CAN"T believe an Apple Genius did not know this) and I think all of my events got restored.  
    However, it duplicated all of the calendars - I have 6 (one for each family member plus an extra called home that we all have to do).   Not sure if I did something wrong, but do you have any ideas?  
    Also, the time setting must be wrong b/c I have events from 2008 showing up in 2012 - same day and time as the old sessoin - just out dated.    Do I need to manually change all of this?   Should I delete the Calendars folder again and try again?  
    Also, I read some where about deleting a iCal cache file.   Do I need to do this?
    I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to help people in this forum.   I have spent hours the past two days trying to figure this out.   Plus, now I need to figure out about upgrading my Office for Mac b/c I didn't realize I lost Office 2004 when upgrading to Lion.   
    Thank you for your time and support!

  • Importing excel data into oracle tables

    Hello gurus,
    Importing excel data into oracle tables..
    I know this is the most common question on the thread ...First, i searched the forum, i found bunch of threads with loading data using sqlloader, converting excel into .Txt, tab delimited file, .csv file etc....
    Finally i was totally confused in terms how to get this done....
    Here is wat i have
       - Excel file on local computer.
       - i have laod data into dev environment tables(So no risk involved, but want to try something simple)
       - Oracle version 11.1.0.7
       - Sqlplus and toad (editors)
    Here is wat i like to do ....i dont know if its possible
        - Without going to unix server can i do everthing on local system by making use of oracle db and sqlplus or toad
       SQLLOADER might be one option...but i dont want to go the unix server for placing files and logs and stuff.
    Wat will be best and simplest option to do?? and wat format will best to convert from excel into csv, or txt or tab delimited etc.....
    If you suggest sqlloader, any code example will be greatly appriciated.
    Thank you so much!!!

    Hi,
    user642297 wrote:
    Imran,
    This is increadible option in toad!!! It works absolutely sweet!! I have toad 9.7 version. IT works great. Thank you so much!!You are welcome :)
    Well i have further discussion on this ....this option is great if you doing in staging or development area. What if your doing in prod?? If you automating the sqlloader then how do u do it?? I think we still need to stick with traditional approach of laoding data by making use of SQLLoader right ?? If m wrong please correct me.well, in our case, we do have access to a custom schema in prod where we create the staging table and load the data from datafiles.
    try this:
    load data
    infile 'C:\dest.csv'
    into table dest_table
    fields terminated by "~" optionally enclosed by '"'
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    (name,
    owner_nm,
    description_column,
    UPDT_DT DATE 'MM/DD/YYYY')
    {code}
    you can get more info about sql loader and your error here:

    http://www.allinterview.com/showanswers/53766.html
    And one more quick question ...i found an example of control file , in that i see .dat format file. Is it a data file ?? can i try that option ?? But in excel i didnt see to convert the .dat format file.
    Any thoughts ???
    It is same as a delimiter text file.
    steps to create a .dat file (from a excel file):
    1. Insert a column between two columns and populate it with the delimiter (in our case, it is ~)
    2. Save the file as unicode text.
    3. Open the file in text editor and remove all the tabs (find an replace with blank)
    4. Save the file as "DEST.dat". Select encoding as UTF-8 while saving.
    5. Your .dat file is ready.

    Where in the code are you reading from the Excel Spreadsheet? What VIs are you using? What are the problems are you experiencing (errors, unexpected values, etc.)?
    There is a Read From Spreadsheet File.vi in LabVIEW. LabVIEW uses ActiveX controls for .xlsx files, so saving the spreadsheet as a CSV file may be better for this VI. Try it out! See what happens.
    Here some more info on reading from spreadsheets:

  • How to import the JSON data that comes from REST API into Excel 2013?

    HI,
    Is there a way to import the JSON data that REST API returns into Excel 2013? If so how?
    Could you please let me know this?
    If you need to know any more info please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Vinay

    I got this. We need to use power query add in for this.
    EXCEL 2013 -> POWER QUERY -> From Web
    Enter the URL for the REST end point and click ok. Power Query editor will show up with the URL and list of your data.
    click on the list -> Right click->drill down
    You will see the no of records the API returned.
    Right Click on List in that table -> To Table and say ok in the next dialog.
    On the displayed columns, there will be a double sided arrow, click on that and select the rows you want to import.
    There you go. You will all the data.
    Click on Apply and close. This will import the data into your excel file.
