Outlook 2007 Calendar

[cstimart]

I imported my contacts into Outlook. How can I get the Birth/Anniversary dates to populate into the calendar?

I saw a response on another forum that imported contact birthdays don't appear in the calendar, until you go into the contact, make a change and save it.

That was my fear. It's not an overwhelming task, as I don't have a ton of contacts. However, when I select the "Calendar" tab, how can I get it to automatically go to the actual calendar?

Currently, I get a list-type view and have to select "Calendar in Archive Folders" which reveals 2 choices..."Calendar in Archive Folders" and "Calendar". Then I check the calendar box and uncheck the "Calendar in Archive Folders" box.

Do you need the Calendar in the Archive folders, or was that just a result of the import?
I don't have Outlook on this PC so I can't go for a dig, but is there a way to define a default calendar? If so, would that remove the ambiguity?
If not, would it matter if the archived calendar was deleted?

It must be a result of the import. How can/do I move it. Does it matter?

Probably won't if it only holds old appointments. I guess I asked because you may need to keep a history, but if that's the case you could always run a quick check to see if the archive data is in the new calendar anyway.
To remove: In the Calendars tab, do you have an option to remove a calendar? Or inactivate it?
