Synchronising Outlook Calendar with Palm Pilot

[Guest]

In Outlook 2003 I have a public folder calendar as well as a personal folder calendar. When I attempt to syncronise my Palm Pilot calendar with Outlook 2003 it updates the personal calendar rather than the public folder. What settings do I need to change so that the public folder calendar is synchronised rather than the personal folder calendar.

Alternatively I could import the data from the personal folder calendar into the public folder calendar. Problem is I do not know the name of the public folder calendar file or where to find it. Can anyone tell me what it is and where to look?

In Outlook 2003 I have a public folder calendar as well as a personal
folder calendar. When I attempt to syncronise my Palm Pilot calendar
with Outlook 2003 it updates the personal calendar rather than the
public folder. What settings do I need to change so that the public
folder calendar is synchronised rather than the personal folder
calendar.

You'll need a third party conduit such as Chapura PocketMirror Professional
(www.chapura.com - make sure it's Professional, not Personal/Standard), or
Pumatech Intellisync (www.pumatech.com) . You can sync public folders that
way. Not sure whether you can sync a public calendar *in addition* to a
private one, if that's your goal - I know you can sync public *and* private
contacts.

Alternatively I could import the data from the personal folder
calendar into the public folder calendar. Problem is I do not know
the name of the public folder calendar file or where to find it. Can
anyone tell me what it is and where to look?

The public folders are all stored in a database file on the Exchange
server - they aren't a separate file you can access. However, you don't need
to, as above.
