|
The information in this article applies to:
SUMMARY
You cannot copy all the items in a Microsoft Outlook 97 Calendar folder by
right-clicking the folder, clicking Copy Calendar and then pasting in
another folder. This technique creates a new subfolder under the
destination folder.
To copy all of the items from a Calendar folder to another folder, you must
select each item and then copy and paste it to the target folder.
MORE INFORMATION
To copy all the Calendar items to another folder, you must first display
all of the items in a tabular view. You can do this either by temporarily
clearing the filter from an exiting tabular view or by defining a new
permanent, tabular view.
To display the items in the folder in a tablular view you can use one of
two methods:
- Temporarily clear the filter from an existing tabular view
-or-
- Define a new permanent, tabular view of all calendar items.
Clearing the Filter from an Existing View
To clear the filter from an existing tabular view, follow these steps:
- Click to select the Outlook Calendar folder.
- On the View menu, point to Current View and click to select one
of the tabular views such as Events or By Category.
- On the View menu, click Filter, click Clear All, and then click OK.
Defining a New Tabular View
To define a new permanent, tabular view, follow these steps:
- Click to select the Calendar folder.
- On the View menu, click Define Views and click New.
- Type a name for the new view, click to select Table, and then
click OK.
- In View Summary, click Sort.
- In the Sort items by list, click to select Start and
Ascending.
- In the three "Then by" lists, click to select (none) and
then click OK.
- Click OK and then click Apply View.
Either of the procedures above will display a list of all Calendar items.
Once all items are displayed, you can copy and paste them to another
folder.
Moving All Calendar Items to Another Folder
- On the Edit menu, click Select All.
- On the Edit menu, click Copy.
- Click to select the destination folder.
- On the Edit menu, click Paste.
This inserts a copy of all the Calendar items in the destination
folder.
