Outlook 2003 does not import .ics calendar while outlook 2007 does

So, after some trial and error with a 2003 test system and I found that adding the following:

DTSTAMP:20101103T120000Z

allowed Outlook 2003 to import the .ics file without breaking 2007, iCal or Google.
I also, for good measure added the UID line to my final .ics file.

So, my final .ics file looks like this:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 11.0 MIMEDIR//EN
VERSION:2.0
METHOD:PUBLISH
X-MS-OLK-FORCEINSPECTOROPEN:TRUE
BEGIN:VEVENT
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Some description here
LOCATION:Scheduled PTO
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20101104
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20101103
DTSTAMP:20101103120000Z
UID: VACATIOND41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E
PRIORITY:5
SEQUENCE:0
SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:PTO - 8.00 hour(s)
X-MICROSOFT-CDO-ALLDAYEVENT:TRUE
X-MICROSOFT-MSNCALENDAR-ALLDAYEVENT:TRUE
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

All I did was create a manual entry in outlook 2003, saved it as a .ics and did a comparison on what was missing/different from my original.

All works well now.

UPDATE One additional change, I removed the VERSION:2.0 bit and that made all work even more reliably.

Don

Add:

CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
METHOD:PUBLISH 

That worked for me.

Deleting "VERSION:2.0" was all it took to make a 3rd party .ics meeting open fine for me in Outlook 2003.
