If you have touched the items recently, their modified date has been
changed. Outlook uses the modified date to determine what items should be
archived. Display your calendar in a table view, add the Date Modified to
the columns and then use that to display your items. Dollars to donuts, the
date modified will be yesterday.

| Thanks for the tip.
|
| Before I got your message, I tried archiving the Calendar (using a
| date in the future) to a new archive2.pst. that successfully emptied
| the Calendar. Then I imported just the Calendar from a backup I made
| just yesterday. That worked. The Calendar is back in order now.
|
| I tried to archive the Calendar on the laptop the same way (Outlook
| 2000 on Windows XP). But it simply won't archive at all. It says it
| is; the archiving icon appears briefly, but nothing gets archived!
|
| Any ideas what's wrong?
|
| Thanks again.

| || 1. Do NOT import your pst file. Importing is for translating
|| another file format for use with Outlook. Why would Outlook try to
|| translate its native format?
||
|| 2. Display your calendar in a table view and then select all and
|| press delete - it may take some time if you have a lot of entries
|| and duplicates.
||
|| Once you have erased the calendar, use File->Open to open your .pst
|| file. You can drag and drop the folders into your current .pst file
|| or you can make your old .pst file the new default and close out the
|| old one.

||| My Outlook Calendar got screwed up when I tried to synchronize it

|||
||| I tried to import my backup into Outlook, but instead of overwriting
||| everything it added everything now I have multiples of everything!!
|||
||| 1) Is it possible to import into Outlook 2K *overwriting*
||| everything?
|||
||| 2) Is it possible to delete the *whole* calendar before importing to
||| prevent the duplication?
|||
||| Thanks for your help on this.
