Outlook 2003 on 2 computers

[[Darkend]Viper]

Hi all,

is there a way in which i can sync my outlook 2003 between two computers? I'd like to be able to access from either my desktop or laptop.

Any ideas?

Use IMAP email to keep the mail on the server, then it will the same on every PC.

I'd like to be able to do this as well, I'm using outlook 2007. I want to be able to sync the calender to.

Yeah IMAP is the way forward, it should be standard from ISP over the usual archaic POP3... One and only thing AOL actually get (mostly) right!

I have come across this site http://www.plaxo.com which seems to sync calender and tasks etc with outlook but it does that by sending the info to their server... has anyone tried this site before?

There's a list of utilities that will do the job here: link

Sadly no free ones tho

Along these lines - can anyone tell me where Outlook hides your Contact and Calendar information? Need to import my old stuff onto my new install. I noticed that it has the ability to install/merge your stuff - is there no simple way to automate this?

If your using Vista, its under c:\users\(username)\appdata\local\microsoft\outlook. Remember you need to go into the folder options and enable view hidden files/folders.
If your on XP its something not that differenct.

just type %appdata% and go from there

if you only want this to work in your home:
Make both LTand PC outlook look for the same data file.

If ya need to get more complex, then do as Immsy said Imap.
