Default Cannot delete appointments since I'm no longer on an exchange server

When I joined a new firm I transfered my calendar to my new computer.
It seems that my appointments are now locked on ther forever and that
it has something to do, I surmise, with not longer being on the
exchange server where they were created. How do I get rind of them?
I've tried deleting and get no error message but they remain. I've
changed the recurrance to anything different yet they remain. Any
suggestions? Thanks, Leah

Remove the old Exchange account and define a new one. You should lose all
connection you had to the old data, including the calendar, tasks, contacts,
mail, and anything else references by the old account.

I have a similar problem except that I moved my old calendar on my new
computer, now running VIsta and Office 2007. One one recurring appointment
reminder keeps coming up. When I try to dismiss it, it says that the
appointment can no longer be found so it cannot be dismissed. It also says
that I "may be reminded again"...and of course, I am, every time I open
Outlook. I can reschedule the reminder out two weeks, but that does little
good, as every time a new reminder pops open the window, this problematic
reminder remains on the list. Any ideas of how to elminate this reminder
other than delete this calendar and start over?

Have you tried starting Outlook once with the /cleanreminders command
switch?

If you're using a PST, you can always start with a clean PST and/or clean
mail profile and that certainly will start Outlook fresh.
