Birtday of imported Contacts is not shown in Calendar
 
I also tried this and it didn't work. I am using Vista and Outlook 2007,
don't know if that makes a difference, but I didn't want to start a new topic
for what is essentially the same issue. I had some duplicates, and some
birthdays that were just showing up as recurring appointments rather than
annual events--so I wasn't getting the notifications uniformly on my WM6 Pro
device. So I deleted the recurring appointments, intending to use this fix
for them. It worked for the first two contacts, and now the birthdays don't
show up even after I edit and re-save the contacts.

If I rememer correctly, you should try editing the contact & saving it. See
if that adds the birthday correctly.

If I import my contacts from Access the birthday is correctly shon in the
contact detail, but is not shown in the calendar. If I create a contact
manually, or if I edit the imported contacts'birthday, the birthday shows
in
the calendar.
Is there a command to force Outlook to update the calender?
