MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / August 2007Two pcs just one calendar
Hi, I use Outlook 2003 both at home and in the office. The email accounts are different but the calendar should be the same, is it possible? If I simply move the "global" pst file I get the same emails on two pcs which I do not want. May I simply export the calendar only and then import it on the other pc? Thanks for your help. > I use Outlook 2003 both at home and in the office. The email accounts > are different but the calendar should be the same, is it possible?

Create a new PST and copy the existing calendar to it. Close that PST (and Outlook) and then copy the created PST to whatever medium you use to transport it. On the destination machine, open that PST in Outlook with File>Open>Outlook Data File. Open the calendar in it and copy the items you want from it to the default calendar. Of course, if you blindly copy everything, you could get duplicate events. I like to use a Windows Mobile device to keep my calendars in sync.

How do I do that without using the export function? So far I managed to copy all the events into a usb pen and then paste them in the other pc. It works but this way I have to manually delete daily the "past" events which I no longer need. What am I missing? Thanks again. > How do I do that without using the export function?

Sorry but I keep not getting it (I'm not a native English speaker, maybe I'm misunderstanding something). How do I phisically create a pst file without using the export function and how do I copy only a few selected events into it? Let's say I have ten events two of which I do not need to bring home, could you pls. give me a "step by step" list of what I'm supposed to do?

Select the first event with a click. Select the second event with CTRL-click, select the third even the save way. Continue until you've selected all the events you want to copy. Right-click the selection and drag it to the calendar in the added PST. Release the mouse button and choose Copy. SignatureBrian Tillman >Select the first event with a click.

THIS IS CLEAR, THANKS Right-click the selection and >drag it to the calendar in the added PST. HOW AND WHERE DO I ADD THIS PST? THIS IS THE POINT I DON'T GET Release the mouse button and >choose Copy. MANY THANKS ONCE AGAIN > HOW AND WHERE DO I ADD THIS PST? THIS IS THE POINT I DON'T GET I already said in the original post that you had to create it. File>New>Outlook Data File. SignatureBrian Tillman >I already said in the original post that you had to create it. >File>New>Outlook Data File. Great! Many thanks and kind rgds. FWIW, exporting calendar and contacts to move between systems should not cause any issues and its less hassle for most people.
