I am trying to copy appointments from a "sub calendar" to the main calendar
in the Personal Folders. For some reason the only way I seem to be able to
do this at all is to put the source calendar in the events view giving me a
list then I can highlight and copy and paste them all to the main calendar,
for some reason I am only getting the all day events and none of the timed
appointments. surely there must be an easier way. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance... Bob

Try a category view instead - this gives you all your calendar items, not just events.

I can see them in the week or month view but I cannot highlight them all for
a copy & past as I can in the events view. When I am in the month or week
view how do I copy them to the other calendar? (There are too many to do
each individually).

As long as you can see them all in the same view, you should be able to use
CTRL-click to select multiple items and then drag the selection to the new
folder. However, displaying your source calendar in a table view is more
efficient, in my experience.
