Sync Outlook 2000 on 2 different computers

N

I have 2 computers and Outlook 2000 on both. I forgot to put my .pst file
from one to the other before starting to use the 2nd one so now they don't
match. Is there a way to sync them? I always just backed up the .pst and
carried it over so they'd always match and forgot.

Take a copy of the .PST from the first to the second, open this file on the
second, drag and drop whatever is necessary from the .PST on the second to
this copy, set the copy (now synced) to be the default on the second
machine, close Outlook on the second, make a copy of the synced .PST file,
take this back to the first machine, open Outlook, open the synced .PST
file, and set it as the default. That's how I'd go about it.

In addition to Hal's suggestion, there are tools that can help automate the
process. See this:
