Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to auto importing calendar data into an artists gig calendar. The ability to maintain gigs in one app (outlook or mac calendar app) and be able to export/import/synch with jamroom, google etc using a one click process would be a great time saver.

I agree

Bumpty bumpty.

Anybody got any suggestions as to how to implement this quickly and efficiently?
I'm sure a lot of people could use it.

I think that you're looking at building a custom JR module that will import data from the specific site.
I did one to import events from myspace sites. It pulls in the source code of the myspace page then parses it to extract the event data, then inserts it into the JR calendar table.
If you download the module from the marketplace you'll see that all the parsing takes place in a single function, so rewrite or adapt that and you could be good to go.
If you want to import from an 'offline' app, you'd need to export the data from the app as a file, then the JR module could import it and extract the event data. You could still use the myspace module as a template to do that as well.
