SYNOPSIS

Import data from a Tickle database

SYNTAX

Import-FromTickleDatabase [[-Path] <String>] [-DatabasePath <String>] [-Comment <String>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

If you have been using the MyTickle module and want to import those events in a PSReminder database, run Export-TickleDatabase to export to a Clixml file. Then use this command to import the Clixml file into a new PSReminder database. This command will fail if a PSReminder database already exists. It is assumed you are starting a new PSReminder database from an import of Tickle events.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

PS C:\> Import-FromTickleDatabase -path c:\temp\TickleDb.xml

Archived events will be imported into the archived table. You can then tag items and archive expired events.
