I am using Thunderbird with the Lightning extension to organize my calendars. As it is very common to send around winmail.dat files to quickly import a new event to a calendar, I am faced with the issue to use this winmail.dat file to do so.
Has anybody found a way to do this in a comfortable way? What I don't want is to download the winmail.dat file first, convert it with some (online) tool and then be able to import it. It has to be a direct and very quick way as otherwise I would prefer to create the event entry manually. Thanks!
The LookOut add-on will handle decoding of winmail.dat files.

My goal is to read a XLSX file and use this to generate objects in Unity3D. However this app is for a hololens. It is possible to let the game ask the user to select a file which it should import (at runtime)? like how a regular windows forms app opens an explorer window and lets you browse for a file.
so, just to clarify, what i DONT want is to import the XLSX file as an asset before building the app (because the game shouldn't be limited to just use that file!).
Let me know if the question isn't detailed enough, I'll try to specify it more if needed.
Unity itself doesn't have any way to implement a filebrowser on runtime however people have made their own versions of a filebrowser which you could use. Something like the ImprovedFileBrowser by Daniel Brauer. Which was inspired by a Filebrowser made by AngryAnt
Note: The ImprovedFileBrowser uses the ImprovedSelectionList which you will also need to get it to work.
Importing categories as a CSV file is OK in tiki-wiki, But how to import categorized articles to the system. Tiki supports media wiki and word press importing, While my data base has another format.
Is there any module for CSV upload/import?
Is there any flexible migration-like script to import articles?
In case that both of answers are NO, would you please give me a clue to write down the proper code to import articles directly to data base.
I went through understanding database, But I think accessing to database directly should be my last choice!
For custom import jobs, you can use Tiki's profiles. The profiles are a YAML-based format. While it is not the primary use for them, it might be the easiest way to perform what you want to do.
Normally, you need to place the profile in a repository to execute it, but there is a developer option to load content from a textarea. You can simply prepare your YAML definition and paste it in there.
Categorizing elements through the database could be harder than it seems as many tables are involved.
I'd like to be able to provide an import/export to csv feature for a specific Subscription (a subset of a Collection). However, I'm not sure at all where I should start. I assume that this has to be done server-side since they need to upload a file for the importing feature, so it probably involves a Meteor.methods function on the server which I call from the client. I'm not sure how you would return a file for download or temporarily upload one (for the import feature, I don't want to keep the file around).
Any ideas on the best way to approach this with Meteor?
I'm going to pretend this is the best way, but do check out CollectionFS, a Meteor package that implements file uploads, so a logged-in user can upload files, and file handlers, in this sense, a function or series of functions automatically run on an uploaded file.
For exports, you could pipe this through CollectionFS again, or you could use FileSaver.js to just directly serve the export file.
Does anyone have any documentation or info on the file structure of the contacts.edb file as it is used in Windows Live Mail? I can't seem to find any way to import file back into WLM (I'm told it HAS no way, and must be "backed up" via manual exports to CSV files).
Given the apparent lack of means to reimport a backed up EDB file, I figured that perhaps I could just write a program to read all the contacts out into vcards or something, and then import those. (I'm actually looking ultimately to get them into Outlook, and ditch WLM for this user, cuz I don't feel like dealing with these maintenance headaches).
Problem is that I cannot find anywhere any information on the file format/structure for WLM's EDB files.
Thanks in advance, any help GREATLY appreciated!
To anyone finding this in the future, THIS CAN BE DONE, without needing to code anything! Use this program - EseDbViewer - to export the file to a CSV file, and then you can import that where ever you want.
Note that you pretty much need the whole file structure containing the edb, not just the edb file.

I am making an iPhone application and i want to use libical to parse .ics dat from an .ics file OR from the URL location of the .ics file..
Firstly i want to know how i would go about using libical in my project? How to add it into my iphone project etc.. ive seen some guides but they seem to be specific to OSX projects and not iphone projects..
Secondly i want to parse event names and their descriptions, so i that i can store the event names/ descriptions as variables..
I was wondering if this was possible using libical.. if so could someone please show me roughly how i may go about implementing this...
Any and all information will be very much appreciated!
Thank You For Reading
I know it might not be a very helpful answer - posting it because i can't comment on the question, so sorry for that - but ics data files are relatively easily parsable. Open one in a text editor and take a look, i've implemented an ics parser before for exactly what you're trying to do, took me a couple of hours, and trying to get all sorts of libraries to compile used taken me more in a few occasions :)
Found an excellent library for parsing .ics files. There are a whole lot of functions too for other tasks like managing calendar and calendar events.
