May I jump onto this thread...I have the same problem, but am having
different details of transfer...

Here's the scenario: Outlook 2002, Vista Home Prem; same as other--need
to
move the calendar and contacts data from one household laptop to another.
I
started with the calendar and attempted the move by exporting the calendar
folder as a pst on computer 1 and importing that pst into computer 2. It
sort of worked, except that all recurring appts imported as an hour
earlier
than should be. Other ones appear to be at right time.

You should NEVER use export/import when moving data between Outlook
instances. Just transport the PST. See this:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/backupandrestore.htm and this:
http://www.slipstick.com/emo/2002/up...#movetonew2002

The time issue is probably the result of a mismatch in the DST rules between
the two PCs.

How can I delete all this calendar (years worth of stuff in there) and get
everything (cal+contacts) into the second machine correctly. BTW, I
cannot
find a pst file (via search) on either machine other than the file I was
exporting/importing.

PSTs are normally in a hidden folder. Enable viewing hidden files and
folder in order to see them or open Windows Explorer and enter
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Outlook into the Address field and click Go.

Keep in mind as well that Outlook 2002 is not compatible with Vista.
