Sync calendar between Outlook 2007 and iCloud

Question

I've just downloaded and installed the iCloud Control Panel on my office Windows 7 machine.  I enabled Calendar and Task syncing with Outlook on my Windows machine.  However, when I opened Outlook calendar, I was surprised to see my iCloud calendar adjacent to my Outlook calendar in Outlook.  I'd expected that iCloud would have synced the two calendars.  In other words, I was hoping the calendar entries from my Outlook calendar would be merged with those from my iCloud calendar resulting in a single calendar.  Now, I've simply got two calendars instead of one.  If I want to add an entry to both calendars, must I add it in both places now?  That doesn't seem very efficient.  Is there a way to merge the entries into a single calendar? 
Any help would be appreciated.

I could not get iclould to work well with oultook and just took it off. Wished I had reviewed the  forums as there seem to be a lot of issues with outlook and icloud, depsite initially looking like a very good solution.  I am running Office 7 64 bit with Outook 2007, on the machine, not an exhange server. Also wanted to sync contacts and calendar with an iPad and Android phone, so perhaps a bit more challenging. After setting up icloud on Windows 7, calendar on outlook synced well with iPpad and android, but I could never get the ipad entries back into the others. Contacts seemd to sync correcly with iPad and oultook, but no solution for android phone. Many calls and discusions, and review of forums resulted in removing icloud which is not so easy.  The entries in those calendar and contact files have to be copied back to the original folders and then remove icloud. I then set up iTunes to do the sync and it works. However outlook still had the folders so further clean up was required. Removing icloud does not restore outlook,so it's a bad set up in my view. The modification icloud makes to outlook are not simple to reverse. MIxed level of support does nto help, though today I received pretty capable support with pretty good outlook knowledge. What I was told seemd to work, so I will stck with Itunes for now.
