I had moved my pst to a new copy of Outlook2007 and found that the new primary calendar remained blank, but my original was also there. Couldn't erase the primary (of course, since I read your note, but was able to move the contents of my original to the blank primary and then erased the original. Your recipe worked. Thanks!
