How can I move appointments back from my archived calendar to my current calendar in Outlook 2007?

Hi,

I use my calendar to store work appointments for charging. I have a little plugin which extracts these to Excel for charging purposes. However I see that my zealous archiving has moved some previous months appointments to the archive calendar and my plugin just uses the current calendar. What would be the best way to move these appointments back to my current calendar? I have about 4 months worth. I could copy across, but I am sure there must be a better way.

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Thanks for this. I have the archive pst already accessible in my treeview. However as far as I can see I would still need to copy the appointments across to my current calendar in my personal folder one at a time. Is there not a better way to "recover" appointments from the archive folder back into the person folder/calendar?

Thanks,

Sam

While I mentioned importing the archive .pst file into your current message store's .pst file, sometimes you don't get the results you want. There could be items in your archive .pst file that still exist in your current .pst file and you'll end up with duplicates. Or you end up importing everything when you only want, say, the last month's worth of items. I figure having the archive loaded in Outlook gives you the most control over what you pull from the archive and put back into your message store.
