Default SQL Data -- Outlook calendar?

Hi,

I run several web sites for youth soccer leagues.

One of the things we do is to display the schedule for a season on a
web page. We've had a request to make this schedule "downloadable"
into Outlook calendar format.

I can export the data in pretty much whatever format I need -- XML,
csv. What is the easiest way to send a file to an end user that will
cause outlook to automatically open it and import the data into the
calendar? What format does that file need to be in?

Thanks very much,
Samuel Knowlton

Create the events as .ics files - this is native to Outlook and you can
point URLs to the separate .ics files you place on your web server.
