HELP-Delete Shared Calenders

[Guest]

I'm in big trouble
I downloaded a program to share contacts, calenders, etc.
The problem is the program created a few hundred shared calenders that I
dont need. I'm running Office 2003. I tried uninstalling the downloaded
program as well as Office. When I reinstall Office, the settings (shared
calenders) that the program created are still there and seem to load as well.
I'm in desperate need of a fix.
My main calender takes forever to load. If at all.
My question is how do permanatly delete the settings from the downloaded
program? Or how do I delete two hundred shared calenders all at once?
Has this ever happened to anyone?
Many thanks for a quick fix.

are they calendar folders? you'll need to delete the folders - drag them to
another of the calendar folders until all are nested in one calendar
folder - then delete that folder.

there is a bug with exchange that creates new folders if someone has
permission to create new folders, it sounds like it's something similar.

Being some what new to this, can you explain further?

Go to the folder list view (Ctrl+6) and select a folder you want to delete
and drag it to another folder that will be deleted and let go of the mouse
button. Repeat for each folder to be deleted - you don't have to drop them
in the same folder each time, just the closest one that is going to get
deleted, and you can drag folders containing subfolders. After you get all
200 inside one folder, right click on it and Delete.
