I've been trying to import via OmniOutliner and Excel files containing about 80 lines with a name, start date, and due date. I exported from excel as tab-delim text and opened in OO. Then saved the OO file and tried to import into OF (mapping the fields correctly). I can't get the dates into the start/due date fields, they always end up as meta-data notes. I even got the dates to OO in the exact same format as they appear in the OF inspector, e.g., Sep 9, 2009 12:00 AM.

I really need to be able to do this to avoid typing 80-100 tasks into OF once a year. The excel sheet sets a bunch of relative dates for me, so I need to start there. Computers are supposed to make our lives easier, no?

HELP!
