The idea is that by putting the information there, you can go to a contact and see their date of birth, without having to search the calendar. Doing it the other way works in giving you a reminder via the calendar but is clumsy in querying a birthday when you have a name. For example, I can't remember my uncle Sluggo's birthday. With the contact-driven data, I can go into Uncle Sluggo's contact info. If I just input it directly into the calendar, I have to search or browse the entire calendar. In any case, either way works, so use the one that works for you. > > Is there any way to remove the Birthdays & Anniversaries calendar? I don't think so because it isn't a real calendar; more like a vFolder or a search folder. -- Art Alexion MIS x3075
