Those just cause even more headaches than they're worth - and the Display Names can be set to anything as long as you reference in the Internal Name.

Isn't this approach going to create multiple instances of the same event in SharePoint? James, what happens if several people attend the same meeting?

I've used VB web services to populate a sharepoint lists via excel - it works ok, but its a bit dodgy. I see you called one field MeetingDate as opposed to Meeting Date (with a space between words) - am I right in saying that you encountered a similar issue to me, in that it doesn't like populating list fields with spaces in the name?

That's too cool. I've done some VBA work for MS Access before to have a button with "Add to Calendar" but this is taking it to a whole new level. Well done! I wonder how this might look with Office 2010/SharePoint 2010 given the launch events today. Something to think about. Woah! That’s too cool.
