How to clear birthday events in the calendar without deleting birthday field data in the contacts?

Hi everybody,

My problem is that I've got a pretty big contact list in my Outlook.
And most of the contacts in the list have their birthday details. It's
really annoying for me to have so many birthday events in the calendar
(Am I the only one feel that?).

I don't know how to configure Outlook so birthday events stop
appearing in the calendar. I've tried Outlook help file and googling
around but haven't found the answer yet. Can anyone help me out?

Many thanx

I third the request. Our business has two thousand contacts in our
company-wide shared contacts folder. Every single employee has all the
birthdays visible in their Outlook calendar. This is ridiculous and really
annoying for our users.

Shared contacts folders won't put birthday events in the calendar, as far as
I can tell.

You can sort your calendar By Category and easily remove all the Birthdays
or you can apply a filter to your view to hide them.
