it appears that old appointments (other than recurring entries) drop off
after about 7 mos. is there any way to keep old appointments on the calendar
indefinitely? once in a while i need to look back to see what week i left
town last summer or some such thing, and the entries are gone. thanks!

Right click the Calendar folder, select properties then the Auto-archive
tab. Set your archive interval to what you want or none. I have mine set
to none.

do i do this by clicking the top button that says "do not archive items in
this folder"?

yep - that will stop the autoarchive from going ahead.

thank you! in the past when it's asked me if i want to autoarchive, i've
said no, and i guess as an option it just deleted the older ones and they are
lost forever! but hopefully i can save them from now on.
