A couple of years ago, I made a CSV file that allowed you to easily import that year’s Formula One calendar into your Outlook file. I didn’t get around to making one for the 2005 or 2006 seasons, even though I got the occasional email from people asking about it. Yesterday, the official 2007 Formula 1 calendar was announced, and I knocked together a quick .csv file that will import the dates into Outlook. Trust me, the data will need updating. I suspect the times, distances, and (possibly) some of the tracks aren’t accurate. I was doing it in a rush, so please keep an eye on the Formula One section to see if I update it at all.
Again, I provided the file as a .zip; you must first extract the .csv from it. Then, in Outlook, you will need to go to the File menu and import the data (import from another program or file) and place it in the calendar. The file is provided as is, and you use it at your own risk. I don’t know how you can remove it without deleting each entry individually. Once again, I have included a category name ‘Formula One’ so you can easily find all the entries this file creates. It should be easier to find them in Outlook and remove them if you need to. If you already have a Formula One category in your Outlook calendar, you may want to edit the file before importing so you can change the category name. The file is fairly simple, and you should be able to read it in any spreadsheet program (and even some text file readers will read it).
I know the previous files were downloaded a number of times. If you download this one, then why not leave a comment and let me know that you’re using it?
PS: Google did a great one for this year’s races, so I hope they’re going to do the same for next year.
