Hello,

I'm playing with my mental blocks today.  I've searched and read the posts
about merging and am still lost.  I have Outlook 2003 at home, and have 2
additional pst's.  I need to merge the calendars and contacts into the main
folders.  I change to view by category, ctrl-a to select all, drag to the
calendar folder, and all it wants to do is create a single new appointment
containing all the items I just copied.  What am I doing/not doing?  Any
ideas?

Thanks,
JimB

It sounds like you are dragging Contacts to a Calendar folder.

What you need to do is drag Calendar items to a Calendar to consolidate more
than 1 folder of content.

Drag Contacts to a Contacts Fodler to consolidate 2 folders.

Thanks for the response.  I actually was doing calendar to calendad.  
Surprisingly, the contacts worked as I thought they should.  The calendar is
still being balky.  I get a dialogue popup asking which of ~4 or 5 options I
want to copy items as, text, attachments, etc.  I deleted the pst, but will
reattach it later if needed.  Any ideas?

Thanks again,
JimB

Are there 2 different versions of Outlook involved?
