Somehow my Outlook 2003 Calendar is in the "deleted" folder, and I
cannnot move it out of there, as I get a warning message that the
calendar can't be moved, etc. I can copy it to the main personal
folders area, but when i click on the toolbar on the left for
calendar, it goes to the deleted one.

How can I fix this problem?

Thanks.

Try starting Outlook one time with the /resetfolders switch.
Start->run->outlook.exe /resetfolders (notice the space before the /)

Thanks so very much. That made new calendar in the proper place, and I
was able to export the info from the "wrong" calendar, and then import
it into the proper one (and delete the wrong one).

One further question: I find that my system keeps creating blank
calendars for no rhyme or reason. When I choose calendar I find the
correct one, and then several others. I think my problem might have
started when I deleted the correct calendar, instead of the the blank
ones...

Any idea why this would happen?

Again, thanks for solving the more serious problem.

You should have just copied the data from the old calendar to the new.
Exporting/importing can lose data.
