Deleting a local calendar

We have 300 computers with outlook 2000 (Exch 5.5) on W2K-Pro that we are
migrating to outlook 2003. Most have personal folders. Sometimes, a user will
have a calendar in their pst. Most can be deleted. Sometimes, that option is
grayed out even when user has admin permissions. What causes that? More
importantly, is there a way to delete the calendar when that option is grayed
out?
 
Default calendars cannot be deleted. If the calendars are in non-default stores, they can be deleted. For instance, if a user has created a sub folder calendar, it can be deleted. If it is the default calendar created with the personal folders file or the Exchange mailbox, it cannot be deleted.

After a lot of head-scratching, LANMAN asked:

Milly,

Thanks for your response. I probably did not explain the situation very
well. None of the calendars we want to delete are default calendars. In fact,
I'll give you a specific example of the problem. I have a user, George, who
has his server-based mailbox as the default. He also has 4 personal folders.
Three-of-the four have calendars. Although none of the 3 pst calendars are
the default, the option to delete is grayed out on all 3 additional
calendars. ??
