Can someone here help me with this please?
I added a birthday reminder to my WLM calendar some time ago & now I cannot
delete it. The option to delete is grayed out.

Has WLMail signed into your Live identity at Microsoft? And is
the birthday in your personal calendar - or is it in a separate
calendar named "Birthday calendar"?

If you are signed in - AND the birthday is in the separate
"Birthday calendar", then you won't be able to use WLMail to edit
or remove the entry.

Use your browser to sign into the calendar for your identity at
calendar.live.com. Check that the birthday appears on the web
version of the calendar. If so, Calendar will have imported the
information from your contact list.

AFAIK, the only way to delete a birthday from your calendar is to
use the web interface - and delete the name from your contact
list. Click on "People", scroll down to the contact name - and
delete it. (You may experience some delay, before the change is
reflected in WLMail.)

If desired, you can restore the person's name and email address
to your contact list, without including details of the birthday.
However, if your contact has a Hotmail, MSN or Live email
address - and has included his birthday in his public profile -
then Windows Live might pull the date back into your birthday
calendar.
