Explain what you mean by "old calendar."
Do you mean a calendar folder in another Outlook Data File?

Default How To: import an old calendar?

Yes, I installed MSOffice2002(Outlook) on another computer. I copied (I
think I am remembering correctly) the Outlook(2000).pst from a laptop to my
currently used desktop computer and then did an "Open an Outlook Data File"
of the copied Outlook(2000).pst. I then copied the "OLD" Outlook(2000)
calendar to the "NEW" OutlookToday-Personal folders, underwhich I now have an
"empty" calendar, and (what I call) a Calendar_FULL. This works fine until I
bring up the Outlook:Today and click on the Calender link which brings up the
"empty" "NEW" calendar. I obviously have not gotten the "OLD" calendar into
the "NEW" Outlook(2002).pst.

QUESTION? How (or can I) get this accomplished, so that the "NEW"
Outlook:Today sees the "OLD" Calendar_FULL?

What you need to do is copy the _contents_ of the old folder into the new,
not the folder itself.
To do so, you will need to switch to a list view of your Calendar (such as
"By Category") so you can then Select All Copy to Folder from the Edit
menu.
