Reappering Tasks

[Rosoft Mike]

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help me out here, as I'm being driven ever so
slightly crazy by an Outlook Synchronisation problem.

I'm running Outlook 2003 on my desktop and Pocket Outlook on a Windows
Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC and synching using Active Sync 4,2.

I run my life using Outlook Tasks and am regularly updating and marking
tasks as complete on my pocket PC. When I synchronise the Pocket PC to
the Desktop, I regularly find that tasks that i have marked as complete
on the Pocket PC, don't get marked as complete on the desktop and end
up re-appearing on the pocket pc. I also find that tasks I have
rescheduled for a different date, also reappear on the pocket pc for
the original date after synchronisation.

It doesn't always do it, and I can't find a pattern, although I have a
feeling that it could be something to do with recurring tasks.

Any thoughts?

Rosoft Mike.

You'll probably find an answer faster in the Windows Mobile group.
