Well at the very least: The first three lines need to be wrapped between BEGIN:VEVENT/END:VEVENT lines then the whole thing needs to be put between BEGIN:VCALENDAR/END:VCALENDAR lines And I'm guessing that there's more stuff missing from the event itself like a SUMMARY attribute (which gives the event title). It also might need a UID attribute to be acceptable to google, not sure about that though. -- Rick DeNatale Blog: http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/RickDeNatale WWR: http://www.workingwithrails.com/person/9021-rick-denatale LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rickdenatale --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
