When creating a CSV file for import into Appointment reminder, the format of the file must be this:

"Display Name","+1-234-555-1234","2015-01-01 01:02:03" "Display Name 2","+1-234-555-1235","2015-01-01 01:02:03" "Display Name 3","+1-234-555-1236","2015-01-01 01:02:03"

There is an optional 4th column:

"Display Name 4","+1-234-555-1236","2015-01-01 01:02:03","delete" "Display Name 5","+1-234-555-1237","2015-01-01 01:02:03","add" "Display Name 6","+1-234-555-1238","2015-01-01 01:02:03","update"

Delete

This removes appointments that exactly match the Name, Number and Date. If you specify "*" for the date, it will remove all appointments that match the name and number

"Display Name 4","+1-234-555-1236","2015-01-01 01:02:03","delete" "Display Name 5","+1-234-555-1237","*","delete"

Update

This updates an existing name/number with a new appointment time, removing any previous appointments with the same name and number. The following csv will result in one appointment for "Display Name 4" at 2015-01-01 01:02:05.

Add

This inserts a new appointment, but will not create an exact duplicate. The following csv will result in three appointments, as the last two are duplicates of each other.
