How to Copy Outlook calendar

Making additional calendars in Outlook is useful for keeping business and personal schedules separate. In Outlook 2002 you can copy your calendar by placing it in a subfolder under Calendar in the Folder List. Once you do this, it's easy to publish your business calendar as a Web page and print your personal calendar for home use. Note that you can copy your Outlook calendar with or without existing scheduling information, such as holidays or appointments.

Step to Copy Outlook Calendar

  1. To show the Folder List, on the View menu, click Folder List.
  2. Click Calendar.
  3. On the File menu, click New, and then click Folder.
  4. In the Name box, type the name of your new folder, and then click OK.

Your additional copy is now available in a subfolder under Calendar in the Folder List.

Copy Outlook Calendar with scheduling information

  1. To show the Folder List, on the View menu, click Folder List.
  2. Right-click Calendar, and click Copy "Calendar".
  3. In the Copy Folder dialog box, select a folder to copy your calendar to, such as Drafts, and then click OK.
    This copy of your calendar now contains all your scheduling information, in addition to your calendar formatting.
  4. Rename your copy, and then drag it to Calendar.

Notes

  • You cannot make a copy of your calendar and attach it to send in e-mail. You can attach individual items contained in your calendar, but not the calendar as a whole.
  • You cannot copy your calendar as it appears in Outlook directly into another Microsoft Office program, such as Microsoft Word. If you want to work with a calendar in Word, see the 2001 Calendar, which you can download from Templates on Microsoft Office Online.
