Calendar items disappear / task due dates disappear

[Christie]

I'm running Outlook 2002 / SP2. I run the calendar
offline on my home computer, and am running into two
problems:

1) I can't seem to put any appointments in the calendar!
Once you hit enter, or save and close, it just disappears
altogether.

2) I can put in tasks, and set start/due dates in the task
dialog box. When you close it, though, it shows in the
task list as due date and start date being 'None'. I've
tried putting tasks in from the task list in calendar, and
from the task folder. Same result. Obviously makes it
impossible to use the 'show tasks for selected days' that
I'm addicted to!

Please reply with any suggestions -- I've tried to search
on the posts, but haven't found anything that looks quite
the same. I've been a strong Outlook user at work for
years, and have never encountered this type of problem
before!

Thanks.
Christie

In case anyone else is looking for this fix, I finally
found it (ask enough people, someone finally knows!). The
problem was apparently in the pst file, even though
scanpst did not find anything. Creating a fresh pst and
deleting the original one took care of my issue.
