OL98: Cannot Add Holidays to a Calendar Subfolder (186347)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q186347 SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Outlook 98, if you select a Calendar created as a subfolder
of the main Outlook Calendar and import holidays, the events are always
imported into the main calendar. This will result in duplicates if the
holidays are already in the main calendar.
CAUSE
This behavior is by design. Outlook processes reminders for events and
appointments in the main Calendar folder.
RESOLUTION
After importing the holidays into the main calendar, copy them to the
subfolder as follows:
- From the main calendar folder's View menu, point to Current View and
click By Category.
- Click to select the Categories bar and drag it to the subfolder.
NOTE: This will move the holidays to the subfolder. To copy them
to the subfolder, right-click the Categories bar and click Copy on
the shortcut menu after dropping on the subfolder.
NOTE: Outlook will not process reminders for appointments in this subfolder
unless they are also created in the main calendar folder.
