Default How do I delete a calendar in Outlook 2007?

By default Outlook uses the primary calendar for all appointments sent
to you. If you are not using the primary calendar at all, then why
have a second calendar? The best thing to do is to set your calendar
view to categories, select all appointments, right-click and move them
back to the primary calendar. In my experience a second calendar will
not function the same as the primary. Your meeting requests will go
the the primary by default. But Outlook does not allow you to delete
or rename the primary calendar.

There is a utility you can use to delete it, but I don't know what
affect that will have on your calendar behavior or if it is a wise
thing to do. The only time I have used it is to delete and the re-
create the primary calendar to resolve a corrupted calendar issue.

Thank you for your response. There are two calendars ( One that just says
Calendar and the other Calendar fo rPersonal Folders ). I only use the
Personal Calendars folder and not the other one. Can't I just get rid of it?

I tried right clicking and that didn't work. The delete calendar prompt won't
highlight in order to click on it. Any other ideas?


You can't delete outlook's primary folders. This includes the
calendar, primary inbox, tasks, primary contacts, etc. Anything you
have created as sub-folders you can delete.


I wonder why you want to delete the calendar anyway? You can remove
all appointments from it instead.


There is a way to delete the calendar using a utility, but I am
curious as to why you want it deleted in the first place?- Hide quoted text -
