Excel Calendar Template to My Calendar

I created an event calendar by using a suggested Template in Excel.  I followed the template precisely, and I love the format.  I followed the instructions on how to import the events into my calendar. When I save it as a .csv it only saves the first page, which would be fine, but the template cells don't seem to match up with what calendar is looking for to import.  Is there a workaround?  You'd think it would be a breeze since its the template excel offered.

    Liam_Kenney What exactly are you trying to do? Which template are you using? You wrote "When I save it as a .csv .....", what is the "it" you are referring to? And why would you want to save "it" as a csv file. Please point us to the instructions you were following.

      Thanks for your reply.  "It" refers to the template, which in the case was "Family Event Calendar" template in outlook.

       

      My goal was to create a list multiple people could add to of work events, non internal events - generally hosted by partners, that would automatically populate the calendar of designated employees.

       

      I ended up just creating a shared calendar, which is ok, but I personally would rather get there through the excel file, where I prefer the format, ease of adding events, and view of everytihng.
