I saved my .pst files to the pc second drive and clean installed XP Pro and
Outlook 2003. I copied the .pst files to C:\Documents and Settings\...\My
Documents. I have managed to get the mail, contacts and calendar to appear in
Outlook but calendar is as 'Calendar in Personal Folders'. There is a second
'Calendar'. When I synchronise my PDA with Outlook it synchs 'Calendar' and
not the one I want - 'Calendar in Personal Folders'. How can I make the
'Calendar in Persoanl Folders' the only and principal 'Calendar'?
 
The Calendar folder in the store (PST file or Exchange mailbox) that your
mail gets delivered to is going to be the default one always. Best bet is to
copy the data from the Calendar folder in the one PST file into the one
that's getting used.

hit?

Yes. Display your old calendar in a list view like By Category, select all
the items with CTRL-A and then click Edit>Copy to Folder, specifying the new
calendar as the destination.
 
That worked. Thanks.

Brian, Can you tell me how to get the calendar into a "list" view? I have
the same problem as Brian JS, but cannot find a way to change the view so I
can copy it.

On the Advanced toolbar, cluick the View drop-down and choose a list format,
like By Category.
 
Jay, I expect you found this? It is View > Arrange By > Current View > By
Category
