How do I put archived appt's back onto my Outlook Calendar?

[JDM-Dysart]

I used the Auto-Archive feature unaware that this also archives my Calendar.
How can I get those appointments back onto my calendar? My time is audited
for funding purposes and now it looks like I've done nothing for half of the
fiscal year. =/

Open your archive .pst file and display the calendar folder in a by category view. Select all, right click and drag to the current calendar FOLDER. Release the mouse and select move or copy.

Hi,
A little new to all this - what application can you use to open the archive
..pst file that will display the calendar folder in a by category view?

Outlook, of course. If your archive PST is not already open in your mail
profile, then open it with File>Open>Outlook Data File. Once you have opened
it, select the Calendar folder, then click View>Arrange By>Current View>By
Category (for Outlok 2002/3) or add the Advanced toolbar and just select "By
Category" in the View drop-down.

I am using Calendar Microsoft Outlook 2007 and the above is for 2002/3.
Could you please give me a step by step of how to view/print and possibly
reinstate my Archived Calendar data?
I have lost all history for 2009 and this was my only calendar.

I have gone ahead and chosen to prevent Auto Archiving from running on my
Calendar Folder.

By doing this will Outlook retain historical data until I physically delete
it?

Scuff

Reread what I posted. It alreadygives you step-by-step instructions.

Outlook never deletes anything unless you tell it to do so or have configured
it to do so.
