I recently exported outlook folders to a pst file including my calendar from
Office 2003.
I imported my calendar into Office 2007, I can see the calendar dates and
reminders pop up. However when I try to change a calendar date or item I get
hte error:
"Cannot open this item. You changed one of the resurrences othe item, and
this instince no longer exists. Close any openitems and try again."

When I create a new item I can open it just fine.

How can I get around this error?
Thanks
 
Instead of doing a.PST export/import (which ALWAYS loses data and usually
corrupts your Outlook profile), just make a COPY of your 2003 .PST file
(with Outlook 2003 closed), take this copy to your Office 2007 machine,
place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing .PST files,
then open it with 'File|Open|Outlook Data File'.

To move a Personal Folders .pst file

Reconnect your old Outlook data file

Importing a .PST loses the following information:

1. Custom Forms
2. Custom Views
3. Connections between contacts and activities
4. Received dates on mail
5. Birthdays and anniversaries in calendar
6. Journal connections
7. Distribution Lists
