How do I set the calendar form in 2003?

I've seem to have "lost" my calendar form. While in the calendar, I selected
a 'find', entered some data and received a list of appointments. Then I hit
"clear", which gave me all 4700 entries. Then I started to try to find the
forms that actually display the calendar instead of a list - to no avail.

Any help out there?

Thanks,
 
You mean the view? Look on the views menu - you want the Day/week/month view
if you want to see a normal calendar grid.
 
Diane,

Thanks for the reply. It's not a view issue. The view menu has *nothing*
related to a typical calendar folder (no day/week/month, etc.). In fact,
under the View/Arrange it had the list of fields. It appears to have the
folder set only as a list.

I created a new calendar folder, and this did create it with the standard
forms. For temporary purposes, I exported the entries from the default
calendar and imported them to my temporary new calendar. This is not a good
permanent solution, because this does not sync with my PDA, and the
export/import didn't seem to bring the appointment "label" information.

Any other suggestion?

Thanks,

Try looking under View | Arrange By | Current View | Define Views. I've seen some calendars that don't show the list of views where you'd normally expect them to be, but do have them in Define Views.
