How can I view my calendar, it says unable to display the folder

I copied my Outlook2003 .pst file to "my documents" to make it easier to
backup. I started Outlook and told it where the new file location was for
both the regular and archive .pst files. My formatting in contacts was not
correct and I got a message saying "Unable to display folder" when I clicked
on my calendar tab. I looked for help and found an article telling me to go
to Control Panel, Mail and Data files to change the locations. I did that
and the formatting problem cleared up in contacts but I'm still getting the
unable to display folder in calendar. I found an article suggesting to run
cleanviews and I tried that without success. I also try running resetfolders
but no luck. Do you know how I can get my calendar back. I know the
calendar is still there and accurate because it still shows in my personal
folders view and I can add an appointment and get an alarm, I just can't see
the calendar or search for appointments, etc.
Thanks,
Allen

Create a new mail profile and configure it to use your current and archive.pst files you saved in My Documents.
