Here's how to force migration:

http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/evolution/2004-September/039343.html

Be careful and read the caveats! This will overwrite all your Evolution
2.0.x data and start over with the 1.4.x data. Thus you will lose any
changes and added data (like Contacts, POP3 mail) done with 2.0.x only.

FYI: Evolution would have automagically migrated all your old stuff, if
you would have restored the old (1.4.x) ~/evolution directory before
running Evolution 2.0.x for the first time...
