Al,
Depending on your backup program and what you backup, you may be able to restore just his calendar. We've done it here numerous times, with CommVault.

Exmerge the mailbox out to a PST and then either Exmerge the calendar items back into the mailbox, or use Outlook to connect to the PST file and copy the items over in Outlook. Depending on the size of the datastore and the speed of your equipment, restoring to the recovery storage group could take time. Expect about as long as your backup takes. Make sure you have sufficient space. All the steps are easy. I do this or similar every week as a part of my backup verification process. -Bill On Thu, Jun 3, 2010 at 12:59 PM, Postmaster <postmas...@prairie.edu> wrote: Hi, We have a user who's Blackberry overwrote his calendar and he is asking if we can recover it. Running Exchange 2003 is there any way to recover his data (presumably from a backup)? All suggestions gratefully accepted (he's a VP level type guy)! al...
