MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / August 2006calendar, how to combine and remove one.
I had to re-install everything and now have two calendars, how do I combine them so I can delete or close one of them? Display in a table view (categories for example) and select all, right click and drag to the preferrred calendar FOLDER.

Both calendars show as personal folders. One is called Calendar by Outlook, the other was also named by Outlook as Calendar1. Now in layman langauge let's try again, how would I move everything from the Calendar1 to the main Calendar so I can delete Calendar1 ? None of this open in table view, what exactly is TABLE view if you can only explain it that way. Would be so much easier if you accepted Email DOEVENTHINKOFEMAILINGME. Perhaps others might also be willing to explain how to do this. Would not have this problem if .PST stopped duplicating when copying or importing but that is not how MS Outlook works, if to easy no fun is how they see things. > Display in a table view (categories for example) and select all, right > click and drag to the preferrred calendar FOLDER. > > | I had to re-install everything and now have two calendars, how do I > | combine them so I can delete or close one of them? Geez - in layman terms. Display your calendar in table view (view->by category - as I ALREADY told you) select all, right click and drag to the preferred calendar folder. Select copy or move as is your preference. However, it appears you have a corrupt profile, which is probably caused by incorrectly migrating your Outlook date (specifically, copying and overwriting/importing.) Create new mail profile. For really easy steps, use F1 help. As for emailing me, I do this on a volunteer basis and don't need pleas for help polluting my private email, used for my business, not news group business.

OK Mz techie, Outlook sets Calendar as TABLE view, right? there is NO SLECT ALL, sure I can right click the Calendar I want to get ride of once I figure out how to move everything in it to the default one but that is not going to happen your way since your way does not work. CORRUPT PROFILE, sure glad you're able to get inside my computer and figure out what is wrong with it. What is wrong is it is a NEW HP computer that has been a total pita since it came out of the box. I have used Outlook for years and never had this problem. I have asked for help here before and always got correct answers but sorry to say I do believe your not sure of what I am trying to do since your answers do not seem to work. If you do not like the fact I have the right to sound off fine with me but please go back to MS School and learn what it is I am trying to do. I can just take the time to put in the default Calendar all my appointments and other information and then delete the CORRUPT one. So much for your help. Thanks, not sure what for but thanks. If MS or anyone wants to delete this because I speak my mind fine with me. But freedom of speech cannot be legallized to slience. > HUH? Both calendars show as personal folders.

Nope. The default view on a calendar folder is Day/Week/Month. That is a day/week/month view, not a table view. A table view shows items in rows and columns, as your Sent Items folder does. An example of a table view for calendar folders is the standard By Category view. > there is NO SLECT ALL After you apply the By Category or another table view from the View menu, you should see the Select All command on the Edit menu and then be able to drag the selected items from one folder to the other to move them.

CTRL-A selects everything. > CORRUPT PROFILE, sure glad you're able to get inside my computer and > figure out what is wrong with it. The mail profile can be fragile sometimes and creating a new one can often fix a stubborn problem. > What is wrong is it is a NEW HP computer that has been a total pita > since it came out of the box.

New, old, it doesn't matter. > I have asked for help here before and always got correct answers but > sorry to say I do believe your not sure of what I am trying to do > since your answers do not seem to work.

So, teach us. We can't see you, so you have to give a complete, exact description. > I can just take the time to put in the default Calendar all my > appointments and other information and then delete the CORRUPT one. Mail folders don't work that way. They're not Windows objects. All your folders are in the same file. You can;t create another calendar and substitute it for the old one. You have to create an entirely new folder set and start using them instead of all your original folders. You can pull your old data into the new folders and then get rid of the old folders if there is really a problem with them. SignatureBrian Tillman
