Ok. I'll give it a try.
One thing occurred to me as I was thinking about this post. When Outlook
2007 was installed ... and prior to it having any data imported .... the
Save
as Web Page was slow given the calendar was empty ... if I recall it took
around 2 minutes to "save as web page" an empty calendar. At the time I
didn't think much of it. Now though it does seem pertinent.
I used SysInternals TCPView to watch the TCP connections and found that
the
ftp-data connection would Establish and then enter the Time Wait state
rather
quickly. However, there was a significant delay before the next ftp-data
connection was attempted (about 15 seconds or so).
There seemed to be a lot of established ftp connections that were
initially
created then remained there throughout the process. They were as follows:
alg.exe FTP Established
alg.exe FTP Established
Outlook.exe FTP Established
Outlook.exe FTP Established
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
Then after 15 seconds or so the connections would briefly show:
alg.exe FTP Established
alg.exe FTP Established
alg.exe FTP SYN_SENT
Outlook.exe FTP Established
Outlook.exe FTP Established
Outlook.exe FTP Established
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
[System Process]":0 FTP-DATA TIME_WAIT
The above cycle repeated itself until Outlook came back to responsiveness
and the Calendar had been saved. Then the TCPView showed:
alg.exe FTP Established
Outlook.exe FTP Established
The above 2 FTP connections remained until Outlook was closed.

Without using Import/Export ... what is the best way to get the
existing calendar from the Outlook 2003 PC to the Outlook 2007 PC?
Copy the original PST to the hard drive on the second PC, making sure you
do
NOT overwrite any existing PST, then open the copied PST in Outlook with
File>Open>Outlook Data File. You can either use it in place, copy the
data
it contains to the second Outlook's default folders, or make the added
PST
the delivery location.
