How do I copy my Outlook Calendar from work to home? I don't want to
change anything else on my home computer's Office.

File
Import/Export
Export to a file
Personal Folder (.pst)
Select Calendar
Click on Browse, and save the file to your desktop

take that file home

File
Import/Export
etc.

Alternatively, I use Plaxo (www.plaxo.com). It's free, and it
synchronizes it's online database with your Outlook folders. It's
customizable, etc. I have it installed at home, and at work, so that
anything that I do at one location shows up at the other. It's very
handy when I'm at home, and going through my kids school paperwork. I
can open Outlook on my home computer, add the soccer game, the
birthday party, etc., and do a sync. When I get to work the next day,
all of the appointments are there.

Hope that helps.

take it home and open it using file, open, outlook data file.

That looks good. I installed Plaxo, and it restarted Outlook, and
told it that yes, that was my e-mail address.

I checked the document ion on the web and it said try it now!

From Outlook, click on Plaxo > My Plaxo > My Cards to update your home
and work info:

So I searched through my menus for anything saying Plaxo. So far, no
luck.

I found the Plaxo on-line forum, and have been trying to log in. I've
used my first 5 attempts, and am waiting 15 minutes to try other
variations. I know my password is right, so I suspect my user name
is wrong. (I am trying variations of Howard Brazee, HowardBrazee,
Howard, etc).

I will be very glad when computer technology goes beyond passwords to
something that works with real people.
