Calendar won't display

[xuesheng]

In Outlook 2007, when my PST file became large, I created a new PST which became the default receiver of mail. However, the new PST doesn't show the present week's calendar's entries when Outlook is opened, as it used to do. To view the calendar, I need to have the old PST file installed in Outlook, then manually select that Calendar to be displayed.

Evidently I've done this the wrong way. For the present, is there any way to copy (or 'migrate', 'import', or whatever the concept is) the calendar entries from the old PST to the new PST?

For future reference, I suppose that, when the default PST becomes too large, I should periodically use the archiving tool to remove old messages from the default PST, thus leaving its calendar intact and preserving all its entries.

Can a calendar be extracted as a separate file, saved to disk, then re-inserted into a new PST in Outlook?

This link should give you some ideas about this: SLIPSTICK.COM. I believe there's also a video on YouTube that explains how to do it. Go to YouTube and type something like "import calendar in Outlook" in the search box.

Don't use the Import function of Outlook to "import" things from a different PST file. Just open both PST files, then drag-and-drop the items you want to copy from the old to the new PST file. You can use right-click drag-and-drop to select between Copy and Move.

B.t.w. new Unicode-type PST files should never become so large that you need to start a new one. Old ANSI-type files had a limit of 2GB, but the new ones have virtually no limit.

I used to use the drag and drop method, but for a while I was getting vexatiously unremovable reminders stimulated by dragged-n-dropped items dated earlier than the start of the new PST file. The 'Dismiss' button just would not put those reminders permanently to rest, so I had to remove the messages from the new PST file, and became apprehensive about using the d-'n-d method of transfer.

Thanks for the tip. Right now my default PST file is 1.1 gigs, but I have also installed two older PST files for easy reference. They total 2.3 gigs, and Outlook seems to take forever to load. So I'm thinking of removing the older files, since I don't refer to them very much, and I hate to wait so long every time I startup Outlook.

In addition, I also have Outlook configured to read my Hotmail account, but I don't see any file path on my drive for that. Doesn't my drive somewhere have a copy of Hotmail's web contents?
