Where are Entourage Events stored? Aren't they in the MUD folder?

Today I copied the Microsoft User Data folder from my iMac to my new
MacBook's Documents folder, but one of the new events I added before I
copied it did not show up in Entourage on my new MacBook (both computers run
OS 10.5.6 and Office 2008 12.1.5). I tried several times to delete the MUD
folder from my MacBook Documents folder and then copy the MUD folder from my
iMac, but that one event continues to not show up in my new MacBook's
Entourage. So, I scoured my iMac to see if maybe Entourage events are
stored in some other file, but I couldn't find anything that looked like it
could be it.

So, my question is whether Entourage stores calendar events in some location
other than the MUD folder.

Thanks.

Copying the Microsoft User Data folder should have copied the event. Is
there anyway to check if that Identity still shows the new event?

Rules, mailing lists, signatures, messages, address book, schedules,
contacts, tasks, notes, calendar are located in a database in your Identity:

Your Identity is named Main by default.

Entourage 2008: ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2008 Identities/your
identity

IMHO Since it's just one event, I would just add it and not bother with it.
However, it's strange not knowing why it wasn't transferred.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks Diane. I thought that everything was stored in the database, but
that one event not showing up got me wondering. Yes, the main identity on
my iMac's Entourage does still show the event, but it wouldn't show up on my
MacBook after copying the whole MUD folder there and using it as my main
identity. I can't figure out why. However, I decided to do just as you
said and add that event in my MacBook's Entourage calendar. Queer, isn't
it?

Thanks again, and Happy Holidays to you too,
Jay
