SYMPTOMS
When you import appointments with a very large list of attendees from an .sc2 file, you may see the following symptoms:
- Microsoft Outlook stops responding and there is an access violation in memory-management while Outlook is importing the appointment.
- The Outlook import filter finishes importing Calendar data after it reaches the appointment.
In both cases, parts of the .sc2 file remain unconsidered by the migration process and are consequently missing from the Calendar folder afterwards.
CAUSE
There is a limitation in the ability of Outlook to import appointments with a very large list of attendees from an .sc2 file. There is a limit of maximum 255 attendees for each appointment during import of .sc2 files.
