I'm afraid I'm not going to be too helpful with the calendar problem.  My
calendar is in a different window in the same frame and the frame returns to
normal after I select my date.  I don't remember doing anything special for
that.  Likewise, I does use windows native emacs.  Just cygwin.  I skip the
whole share mapping thing by doing cygwin mounts.

About your first question, my first guess is org-agenda-files.  Did you set
it?  You can check it out from an org buffer menu.  Just look in "Org ->
File List For Agenda".  You can modify the list in that menu.  It also has
the current files in that menu.  Agenda only deals with files in that list.
