Hi
   Telerik Team

    Here i found two problems with the export to icalendar format. which are explained below.
1) if you see the example of export to ical, it is working fine but if u try to export all the appointments it will export the first one only. though the function "WriteCalendar()" get the string of all the appointments.
2)second is if u export the appointment the time period get disturb. if i export on my desktop the appointment of 9:00 to 10:00 exported for 11:30 to 12:30

Thanking You
Chirag

Hello Chirag,

Exporting multiple appointments works, but not all applications are able to import them. Outlook 2003 imports only the first appointment in the file, while Outlook 2007 imports all of them (as a new calendar). You can verify that all appointments are indeed exported by examining the output file with a text editor.

Regarding the time of the appointments, RadScheduler exports them in UTC and its examples are set in the GMT +3 time zone. Your computer is in different time zone and that explains the difference. We will consider adding a new overload to the export method to specify the time zone explicitly.

hi
    Tsvetomir Tsonev
   
    you are right i have msOffice 2003 installed and so application exporting only first appointment. but it is possible that we can export all the appointment regardless 2003/2007 cause it is not possible that every PC has Office 2007 installed.

Thanking You

Hi Chirag,

As far as I am aware, this is limitation of Outlook 2003. I have not found a way to import/export more than one appointment at a time without using third-party plugin.
