Choose which Outlook 2007 Calendar should appear in Outlook Today

[Functioning Mortal]

In 2007, the calendar for Outlook Connector keeps loading my calendar up to
the web. So, I have stopped using it. There is not option that I can see to
stop this. So, I am using a calendar in a personal folder. However, there is
no option that I find to select this calendar to appear in Outlook Today. I
am forced by the configuration, to use the Windows Live calendar. Is this
correct? Am I missing something here? I don't want to put my personal
information in the 'cloud' and it appears it is being done without my
permission.

FWIW, "the cloud" is just your private mailbox and if you don't share it, no
one else can see it.

If you set the default data store to be your local PST (tools, accounts,
data tab), the local calendar will be the one used on Outlook Today and also
where your new appointments are saved to.

The Outlook Connector will not send your default calendar to the server unless
you have designated the Hotmail folders to be your delivery location
(Tools>Account Settings>Data files). The calendar on Outlook Today will
always be your default Calendar. If you don't want your default calendar
synched with the Live server, don't make those folders your default, make the
local PST the default.

Thanks. That was it. I was looking for Calendar option, not Data options.

Thanks Bill. That works. My screen isn't big enough to display the To-do list
with the calendar, so this helps.

Thanks Bill.

You're welcome, but who's Bill?
