Birthdays + Outlook + Calendar = Macro Needed!

Question

Would some wonderful soul out there write a quick little macro to get this job done? Outlook comes with a simple VB macro compiler, so all the macro would have to do would be to sort the calendar by annual events, then edit each of the listed contacts so that their recurrence is changed to Yearly. Thats it. I can do it manually on a keyboard, using the ALT+ commands, so writing a macro should be stupid easy, but its been years since I took a VB class, and forget how to write something as simple as keystrokes and loops properly. Sad, I know, but at least I'm calling for someone more skilled to help out, and giving them the bare bones outline of whats needed!
I'll post my manual-fix response that I posted on alot of the threads if any of you readers feel up to the challenge, so you can know the keystroke by keystroke sequence (almost).

Follow these steps:
1. Go into outlook and open your calendar
2. Select View -> Arrange By -> Current View -> Annual Events
NOTE: All of your contacts that have birthday listed SHOULD show up on this page now. No they are not events yet; Yes its dumb that outlook 'knows' they're annual events but doesn't put them on the Calendar; Yes be patient.
3. With a contact highlighted, hit CTRL+A, which is the command to select all the items that populate that list. Alternatively, you could hit HOME then SHIFT + END to select the entire list as well. Whatever.
4. Right click any one of the contacts that are all highlighted, and select "Open Items"
NOTE: Outlook will warn you that opening alot of items may take a long time and doesn't recommend it. I opened 280 contacts almost instantly, no lock up or slowing, on a craptop, so don't fret and just agree to it.
5. With all those windows open (stop crying, I know its alot), get your fingers ready. No we're not going to have to click around everywhere and take a million years. Just some fast finger work is all.
6. Push ALT + U, ALT + Y, ENTER, ALT + S
NOTE: What you're doing here is manually selecting the recurrence button, then selecting yearly for the recurrence, then closing that window, then saving and closing that contact. You can click all that with your mouse, but getting into a rhythm on your keyboard makes it so you don't have to look at the screen and can go as fast as you can type perfectly.
7. Once you get the rotation down, it will start to be like this, ALTS,+U,Y, ENTER, ALTS,+U,Y, ENTER, etc etc etc.

Answer 1

To be honest, this is such a minor thing to do that solves a pretty common problem, that I think IT WOULD BE GREAT if someone on the Apple support team whipped this up real fast. Yes, I know there are multiple versions of Outlook, and not all problems are exactly the same, but this would be so fast to write, why not?
