I want to keep my Outlook Calendar appointments for all events, past and
present, but I don't want any attachments, which take up space. How do I
remove attachments from Calendar appointments?
 
You can set View to Outlook data file to find the ones with attachments,
then Open them select the attachment and delete, and save again.
 
You'll need to open each appointment and select the attachment, delete it
and save the appointment. you can use a table view, such as All
appointments, so you can see which ones have attachments.

You could use VBA to automate it - see outlookcode.com or the program_vba
group on this server.

I am unable to figure out how to set a Table View in our version of Outlook
(2003). When I go to view, I have only the choices of day, week, work week
or month. How do I get a table view - All appointments?

View, Arrange By, Current view. By category is a good choice too.
