Viewing archived calendar items

I'm trying to view the calendar, or at least the calendar items, of
several archived PSTs. I'm using Outlook 2003. I didn't do the
archiving of these PSTs, but the PSTs were archived using Outlook 2000.

I can open the PSTs just fine using File | New | Outlook Data File, and
I can open each Mailbox's Inbox from the Folder List, and view emails
just fine.

But "Calendar" is not a folder that appears within the folder list
under the PSTs mailbox. How can I access that PST's calendar, or
calendar items?

Is there a way to determine for sure whether calendar items were even
archived into this archive?
 
To know for sure, display the Folder List in the navigation pane. IF there's no Calendar folder, there's no calendar data in that particular ..pst file.

File>New>Outlook Data File will create a new PST not containing any folder
by Deleted Items. You need to use FIle>Open>Outlook Data File

If there is no calendar in a PST, then none was ever added. A PST isn't
required to contain a calendar or, in fact, any folder at all except for
Deleted Items. If it has no calendar, it was never a delivery location PST
or its calendar folder was deleted while it was open as a non-delivery PST.

If it doesn't have a calendar folder, I don't know any way to tell.
