Synching Outlook Personal Files Between Laptop and Desktop

J

Joe Lawson

I've used Outlook on my desktop for years with no real problems.

I recently bought a laptop and took it on vacation. I read emails and filed
them and made changes to my contacts, etc. on the laptop. I thought all I
would have to do was make a .pst file from the laptop Outlook (subfolders
option selected) and import it into my desktop Outlook and PRESTO I would be
synched. (I selected the "replace duplicates with items imported" option.

It didn't work that way. Some emails were there and some weren't. Some
changes/adds to contacts were there and some weren't.

Does anyone have a reference to documenation for keeping laptop and desktop
synched or have a good method they use?

Thanks in advance,

I found some good info by searching for 'sync' instead of 'synch'. I think
I can figure it out now.
