Merging Excell 2010 and Outlook 2010 problems

[Meldrew]

Hello All,
This is a first post, so go easy.
I am trying to import some dates and events into Outlook from Excel
using import/export. I exported some calendar details as CSV
successfully in to Excel so as to get the correct field names. I altered
some of the dates, categories etc. as a test, including Reminder=TRUE.
The import back to Outlook partially worked with the dates and category
colours, but the Reminders was set to NONE, despite having a date and
reminder+TRUE. I looked at the field mapping which was all OK. I am at a
loss to know why this doesn't work. I know that there are VBA answers to
this, but for a few dates and events this looks like overkill, and it
should work in any case. Any help/suggestions appreciated.
