You can go on a fishing expedition using mdbvue32 utility which is always fun. Would have been a piece of cake after you exported everything else to find and eliminate the bad appointment. I had to go digging through one that would only get about a third of the way through an export before hanging the client (guess I should have tried exmerge but it didn't occur to me at the time). Good luck.

(on server) I downloaded the publicly available cdo.dll (as instructed by the bb server install readme) and also got PSS to email me a newer unreleased cdo.dll (per rim's instructions). Neither of these helped the calendar access problem. I'll search around for the old exchange client and give it a try. I have another user with different calendar issues I can try it on (the keep getting unable to update free/busy errors all several times a day).

(on server) This is when the old Exchange Client comes in handy. You could have exported the calendar to a PST and then deleted the calendar folder. The next time you started OL, one would have been created. It also sounds like you need the CDO hotfix for Exchange. BB support should be able to help with that. -----Original Message----- From: Alverson, Thomas M. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 3:36 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Best way to clean up corrupt calendar folder? (on server) I had one user who could not syncronize her calendar over the air with her blackberry. The errors in the event log basically said that the CDO stuff could not access the calendar. Email was forwarding just fine. After trying all sorts of things on the blackberry server, I finally created a new mailbox (with a different username) and synced the blackberry up with that (the calendar worked fine). I then exported everything from the user's mailbox to a PST file (so I could delete the mailbox and create a new one just like it). After exporting all the mailbox contents I tried deleting everything from the calendar folder (by using view by category and deleting everything). After doing only that (i.e. not yet creating a new mailbox) the blackberry still would not sync with the calendar (over the air). The calendar appeared completely empty from an outlook 2000 client. When I tried via OWA there was an appointment still showing up in the calendar (yikes). After deleting the mailbox and creating a new one with the same alias and email address, the old data was imported from the PST and the blackberry syncs up fine now. My only question was if there was some better way of fixing the calendar short of what I did. I had tried all of the /cleanfreebusy /cleanreminder /cleanshedplus options in outlook with no improvement.
