I have spent a considerable amount of time creating my WLM Calendar, and now
I find out it all has to be re-created on the Live account website. Is there
anything in the works on this program to allow the export of one's local WLM
calendar to one's Live account site? I want to receive reminders of my
calendar items and it can't happen without the Live account website and that
can't happen unless I tediously re-enter all the items to the online version.
IMHO, this was a really bad goof to not have this capability. I mean, how
hard can it be after all.

I am assuming that you created your calendar/s in WLMail using the Default (off-line) Calendar (not signed into WLMail with a Windows Live ID).

If you sign into WLMail with a Windows Live ID, your calendar/s will synchronise with your Live ID Calendar at calendar.live.com

So sign into WLMail with your Windows Live ID, then...

You can copy->paste your Default WLMail Calendar's Database ('WLCalendarStore.edb' file) to overwrite your WL ID Calendar's Database ('WLCalendarStore.edb' file)*.

*Copying the Default Calendar's Database, from within the Default Calendar Store, into a WL ID's Calendar Store:

->The Calendar Stores are located within a folder named 'Calendars' within the WLMail Message Store**.
->The Default Calendar Store ('DBStore' folder) is directly under this 'Calendars' folder.
->There are also folders named according to each WL ID, which contains that WL ID's Calendar Store ('DBStore' folder).
->Each Calendar set's Database ('WLCalendarStore.edb' file) is within the relevant 'DBStore' folder.

->Now close WLMail and use copy->paste to copy the Default Calendar's Database ('WLCalendarStore.edb' file) into your WL ID's Calendar Store ('DBStore' folder), overwriting the existing WL ID's Calendar's Database ('WLCalendarStore.edb' file).

**The path to Windows Live Mail's Message Store folder in its default location, involves a hidden folder, so ensure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked under Folder Options in Windows Explorer...

The default location of Windows Live Mail's Message Store folder is:

Vista & 7: %localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail
(C:\Users\<User_Name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail)

XP: %userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail
(C:\Documents and Settings\<User_Name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail)
