Outlook sync?

[mo786]

I use Outlook at work - one of the features I use a lot is the calender.

I can access a web version from my house, but is there anyway I can sync the calender from work to a copy of outlook on my own PC?

ok thanks

i can access webmail via ms exchange

so thats a good sing

i thin kthe outlook they use is 2003 whereas mine is 2007 - will that be an issue?

how does it sync?

if my work one is 'on' all the time do i sync from home and it updates them both or do i have to do something from the work end? but my home pc isnt always on.. (esp when i am at work!)

computer says no!

actually the tech guy at work says no - apaprently due to security and such its not possible - ididnt mention rpc or antyhign tho.


i'll give him a call tomorrow tho and see what the deal is

as an alternative i have my mobile (nokia s60 smartphone) with wifi and my work has wifi - i coudl always have that act as a go between !

lol - are you IT lot really that desperate for work?

I'll have a word tomorrow! Its a pretty large organisation and we have a in-house IT dept.

Its all done with tickets liek you get with online shops - I could always raise another one but I dont want to all to end up with our Outlook expert who just gives me the same answer again, lol

BTW are there anyways I could find out the settings myself?

apparently staff who have PDAs can access the info and update their calneders that way - surely it must be using a similar system??

i am guessign i will have to fork out for one of these pdas and it will be way above my payscale for being free i imagine if they supply them
