Default How to retrieve archived calendar info

I've read over many postings and some refer to my problem. I had autoarchive
turned on and all data 6 months old is archived to a .pst file. This has
also 'emptied' my calendar in my PDA causing much anguish.
How do I 'open' that file to move data back to the calendar? I do not
understand the posting referring to a table view.
This computer is on a network at my work desk, which is where I perform
active synch etc.
Any help is appreciated.

Default How to retrieve archived calendar info

Open your archive .pst file
Click on the calendar
Switch the view to a By Category view.
Select all
Right click and drag/drop to the current active calendar FOLDER
Release mouse and select Copy or Move (copy is usually best)

Ensure your settings on your PDA/activesync are set to sync all past appointments.

When I click on the .pst file, I am prompted to answer which software to use
to open the file. Which program should be used?

You open the .pst file IN OUTLOOK. Open Outlook, File-Open-Personal Folders File (or Outlook Data File).
