Default Can I transfer my birthdays from year to year in a Word calendar?

I have a calendar set up in Word with birthdays and anniversaries. Is there a
way that I can take this data and put it in a 2005 calendar without retyping
all of it?

Not really, other than copy/paste.

If you want this type of capability then you should utilize a
calendaring application - not a word processor. For example I use
Outlook so I don't worry about reoccurring birthdays and
anniversaries - Outlook automatically takes care of them since it was
designed for such a task. Word was designed for word processing.

This is similar to taking the family sedan to the home improvement
store and trying to load a bunch of bricks and plywood into the car.
It can be done but it takes some work and you may need to make two
trips since a sedan is designed for hauling people not bricks and
wood. Now, if you took a truck then it would be easy to load since it
was designed for this purpose.
