How do I copy and share appointments between Outlook calendars?

[Guest]

I have my main Outlook calendar I use for overall personal and family
management and now I have one for my children's homeschooling appointments.
Is there an easy way for me to copy and paste events from calendar to
calendar without having to do it manually? Like is there a "share to other
calendar" feature?

....and why won't my invitations or reminders sent from this second calendar
take?

Thanks for any help,

For your first question, it really shouldn't be too hard to move the
appointments manually. Switch to a table view of your primary calendar, such
as By Category (which is unfiltered). Then, with your folder list showing,
select all the items you want to move -- hold down SHIFT and click the first
and last items if they are adjacent, and/or hold down CTRL and click to
select non-adjacent items. Then drag all of the items to your homeschooling
calendar. Select Move if you are asked whether to move or copy.

As for reminders: By default, reminders only fire from the Inbox, Calendar,
Tasks and Contacts folders in the primary mail store (the file where your
mail is delivered). To extend reminder functionality to other folders, see
the 3rd party addins available at http://www.slovaktech.com.
