Pastor Johnson,


Thank you so much for your help.  Your suggestion was brilliant - wish I had though of it myself.  Reformatting my input file to match Ecco's output format worked.


I did a little further experimenting, however, and as it turns out, my mistake was in not including an ending time.  To import a date and time field to Ecco, you must include an end time, regardless of the display format:


mm/dd/yy hh:mm hh:mm


Ecco did accept times in the 24 hour format.

I think you are not delimiting your columns the way ecco would like you to. I don't remember the exact format, but I would suggest that you create an item with an appointment date and time, then export that item (out of a notebook, can't export out of the Calendar). Open the export text file in a text editor and that will show you the format that ecco wants.


On your date and time format, I don't think ecco will take 24-hour time. It wants you to put it like this: 4:30p - but do the export to make sure of the exact form... I think I am still not remembering it quite right.

I am trying to import a large number of events with dates and start times into a notepad view, but each time I attempt this, I get the error message "An application error has occurred. Please exit Ecco and restart." Here is an example of a .csv record I am attempting to import:
