Adding holidays to calendars in a subfolder????

I am running Outlook 2003 and have a somewhat complicated setup with multilpe
email inboxes and multilpe sets of calendars, tasks lists, notes etc. in
different subfolders. I do this so that I, my wife and my son can keep
separate calendars on the same system and sync them separately with our palm
pilots (using Pocket Mirror)

Anyhow, I have been tryng for ages to get holidays to show up in these
subfolders but with no success. When I add them using Tools - ptions- etc.
they appear only in the main calendar (i.e. the one under Personal Folders)
which no one is using. Is there any way to get these into the subfolders?
Even something as mundane as a way to select them all, copy and paste them?
Or perhaps to import them from another file?

I would appreciate any help that anyone could offer...

OK I answered my own question, or at least found a workaround that I thought
I would share....

First, add the holidays to the main calendar the way it has been described
in several posts here.

Then, after making sure the holidays are there, go to the View menu
Arrange By Current View By Category and the list of events will be
sorted by type. Somewhere down the list the holidays start appearing.

Click on the icon next to the first holiday, hold down the shift key and
press the down arrow key at the same time until you have selected all of
them. (The list is pretty long as it spans several years and you may choose
to only select the current and future dates.)

Right click the list and select Move to Folder. A pop up window will appear
with all your folders and subfolders. Navigate to the one you want, press OK
and you're golden....

It worked for me and that's all that matters no?
