Repeating meetings are exported as individual meetings to handle the requirements of the application program that the information is imported into. This is done because there is a need to handle exception meetings. Most applications do this by storing repeating meetings as individual meetings. For example, create a repeating meeting for every Tuesday. Then pick one week that you have to go to the dentist on Tuesday but you still need to have the meeting so you change the meeting to Wednesday. Now you have repeating meetings for Tuesdays with one exception meeting for one week on Wednesday. This information would be lost if repeating meetings were not exported as multiple single meetings.
