How to disable autocreating of birthday reminders?
 
There are a lot of questions here like
http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...=en-us&m=1&p=1
where people asks how to export birthdays from outlook contacts to calendar
reminders. The answer as far as I understand is that this action is always
performed automatically.

My question: how to DISABLE this automatic behaviour?

I don't think that's possible, except by not adding the birthdate.

Well, once again it seems that my computer better knows what I actually need.
Bad news... :(
Probably there is a way to auto-delete all autocreated appointments?

Display your calendar in a by category view, select the category and delete it.

.... and perform this twice a day. Thanks a lot! ;)

I intentionally ask about AUTO-delete. I hope if the system performs
automatically some function that disturbs me, it probably can automatically
fix it? Some script for example...
