How to scan calendar database for corruption that hangsactivesync?

Is there any way to validate (scan for errors) the Calendar database? There
seems to be some corruption in mine (residing on an Exchange server). My
email client, Entourage is unaffected by it (shows Calendar entries
properly), but when I synchronize the Exchange calendar to a PocketPC WM5.0
device, it always hangs half-way through. I've tested it on other accounts
(and also did a backup and restore of my calendar database to a fresh
account, which then caused the activesync hangs also), so I know it's not my
device - it's something in the items in the calendar database on the server
that mucks up the over-the-air (internet) ActiveSync. Does anyone happen to
know how to scan the database (or an export file) for anything that may be
causing a problem? What kinds of things in a calendar entry might hang
activesync?

There may be an easier way but what I would do is to move half of the
calendar to another calendar folder which does not sync. then try syncing,
if it works then move some of the calendar back onto the exchange server.
and so on until I figured out what entries were causing the problem and the
just recreate the calendar items which are corrupted.
