Can't Delete Recurring Event From Calendar

Hi,


I added a recurring event to my iPhone calendar. It is an event the originated on my work Outlook account that i forwarded to my personal email then added to my calendar. The event isn't synching across iCloud for some reason. It is only on my phone, so I want to delete it. There is no "edit" button on the event and, thus, no option to delete it. How do I get rid of it? Please help. Thanks.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

After screwing with it for over an hour, I, finally figured it out.


The event in question was on my phone's iCloud calendar. But, as I mentioned, it wasn't synching over iCloud like every other event was (evidentally, this tends to be a problem with recurring events imported from Outlook). On my phone, I turned off iCloud sharing for my calendars which deleted all the calenders from my phone. I turned iCloud sharing back on, the calendars resynched, and, as I hoped, the offending event was gone.


Seriously, deleting an event from a calendar should not be this frustrating or complicated, but there you go...
