the Archive Calendar once deleted will be in the Deleted Items folder of the
Archive. Use the Folder List view of the Navigation Pain and you should see
all folders and the hierarchical structure of them.

Drag it from the Deleted Items folder to the Archve folder and it will be
fine.

I have been a long time user of Outlook and have been using this 2007
version
since around February of this year. Several days ago, the rectangular
"buttons" on the left side below the tree (Mail, Calender, Contacts) sort
of
stopped working in that when I select Calender and go back to Mail, the
main
right hand preview panel continues to display the calender and the item
"Calender" in the tree on the left is highlighted - only when I use the
mouse
to click on "Inbox" at the tree, would I be able to view my Mail items. I
have no idea what that was the case and, while trying to "fix" it, I had
inadvertently gone way down on the tree to the Archive Folder section,
right
clicked on the Archive Calender, and deleted it from the pop up menu when
I
right clicked on Archive Calender.

Outlook is ESSENTIAL for me. Everything I do is on it to keep me on track.
The Calender is important for me as it is almost a diary for me to
remember
what I did years ago - quite effective for me. May I kindly as the good
folks
here how I might be able to retrieve my Archive Calender? The item on the
tree (under Archive Folders) called Archive Calender is no longer there.
I'm
quite distressed that I no longer have access to my calender past around 6
months ago.

As a related question, I'd like to ask how best to back up my Outlook
(everything, including Calender, Mail, Contacts)? I do use Acronis to do
automatic back up but whenever i look at those Acronis "automatic back up"
files for Outlook, they do not look familiar (they have names like
2007_11_10..._.TIB). I do not know what ".TIB" files are and how to really
"use them" to either open up or to view. When I had my Archive Calender
still
visible on the tree, it was pretty easy whenever I needed to view older
items: merely click on the words Archive Calender on the tree, then the
right
hand side's Preview area would show the older items, sometimes in a
different
shade of color to differentiate from the "regular" current calender. I can
look for whatever event or appointment, then close it and go about my
daily
business.

Sorry for combining 2 different issues in one post, but they are quite
inter-related. (Accidentally deleting Archive Calender - how to retreive
it?
And, how to effectively back up Outlook 2007 - everything, from Calender,
to
Contacts, and Mail).
