Symbian smartphone: Google Calendar import

Google Calendar import
Hello there, I am a new user to the internet. I am trying to learn about many of the applications that are supported with the internet on my system. So, one of my friends told me about the Google calender. But, I do not have any idea about how to do a Google Calendar import. I need help from those who have any idea how to do it and it will be good if someone explains me about how to go about it in a stepwise manner.

I want to thank both for helping me with the information and giving me your views. The import was very much successful without any problems. I just wanted to get one more information. Is it also possible to have an export of the events in the calender? I request to have some suitable suggestions as soon as possible as this is a very urgent task that I need to perform now.

Re: Google Calendar import
As mentioned above, since you know the steps on how to do a Google Calendar import, you can also do the export of the events too. You simply have to select export at the place where you were selecting import. So, the events will be automatically exported when you select the other alternative or option. Just give it a try and you will find it successful.
