In fact, it's not even all that easy to move iCal data into Entourage. It's
probably possible with Paul Berkowitz's scripts, but I haven't looked at
them for calendar support.
Note that Entourage doesn't support importing iCalendar (the .ics format)
files with multiple events in them. This is a limitation of several calendar
programs. Unfortunately, it's also a key export feature for many calendar
programs, and probably preserves the most data.
Since Entourage is very scriptable, it is quite possible that you could
write a script to parse iCalendar files, break the contents into individual
events, and then create those events via AppleScript. We did something
similar to that with exported tab-delimited text files from the
CorporateTime calendar client; we used Perl to parse the files, outputting
text that was AppleScript. That AppleScript text was then piped through the
osascript command so that it ran the AS commands. (This was all done at the
Terminal level, so it's not the friendliest, most accessible thing to do.)
