I am using Outlook 2007 as a stand alone product. I have moved my data from
a windows xp pro machine to windows vista machine. A lot of the contact
detail dates do not show up in the calendar. For example, friends'
birthdays. My question, is there a way to tell outlook to refresh all the
dates in the contacts and put them on the calendar.

Thanks for all the help.

Did you import those contacts by chance? If so, that's why. When moving
Outlook data to another Outlook, never use import/export. This product
(quite inexpensive) can fix the problem:
