I have search high and low and cannot find how to delete all calendar
events. Whne I synced my Palm to Entourage, the wrong info came over
and I need to completely erase the calendar. Can someone help before I
have to pay Microsoft $39.00 for a n answer?
Txs, Scott

Create a view in Entourage that should get all entries. They'll show up
in list mode where you can select them and delete them all.
eg; name does not contain JDHFDJFH ;-)

Simplest:

Items: ˆ Calendar events [only]

Match: <If ANY criteria are met>

<Category> <Is > <None>
<Category> <Is not> <None>


If you have Entourage 2004 then you already have such a view by default.
It's called "All Events", in the Calendar Views. If you have Entourage X
or 2001, make your own and find it in the Custom Views area.

Thank you. So did MacBU. ;-) They adopted my suggestion for All Events view
in 2004 (they used to suggest <Date is less than 10000 days from now> or
something similar.)

Thanks to all... Such a view and deletion was not possible in Entourage
cersion 10... but now that I have upgraded to 2004 (version 11) I could
do it. Thanks again.

Sure it's possible. You just have to make your own custom view in Entourage
X or 2001, whereas in 2004 it comes ready-made.
but now that I have upgraded to 2004 (version 11) I could
do it. Thanks again.

I'm glad you've got it going.
