this kinda depends on what caulking you are speaking of. the term caulking refers to putting in a compound that is flexible through a tube or by using a putty knife into voids around a door jamb or window finish moulding. a lot of people call the window glazing "caulking." if this window "caulking" is what you are referring to then the old stuff has to be removed and re-installed or "re-glazing." A propane torch can be used to soften the old glazing and with a putty knife removed down to the wood aand glass surface. New DAP glazing compound is then put in. Some newer places have a window glaze in a tube with an angled tip to apply.
