I recently was laid off and am using a friend's office for my job search. He
has a PC, and I've brought my most important files over on a flash drive.
I'd like to bring my Outlook file also, and be able to sync it with my home
PC when I return home.

Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Thank you.

Thanks for your response.

He has Outlook 2002 10.2627.2625. I am not home currently, but I know I
have Outlook 2003, I believe with SP3.

Outlook 2002 cannot read a native OL 2003 format data file

If you want to use your OL data file on his PC, you would need to within
your Outlook, create a new data file in 97 - 02 format, then copy stuff from
your data file to this.
Then close that new data file (Having noted its name/path) & exit OL
Copy this data file to usb, it can then be opened in OL on the friends PC.

I dont reccomend trying to sync, if neccessary when opened in your OL copy
data from this to your default
You also may not be able to send, using your account, on the friends PC it
depends whether your ISP allows relaying
