Dear friends,

I have a problem:
I have to computers, one at office, the other at home.
On both computers I use outlook intensively, in particular the calender.
Now,
when I make a change at the hoke computer, the one at the office remains
out of date (or vice versa).
And this cause problems because the two calenders contain different items,
as I can not keep track of every input I make in either of the computers.
So I need synchronization between the computers.
But I absolutely have no idea how to do that.

Here is what I was thinking:

I work at the university and on the computer network I have some space.
Now I was thinking of making both outlooks to make use of the same calender file, which would be placed
on the network drive. Then, since a single calender file will be used by both outlooks,
it would not matter from which computer I update the file.
Now I really dont know if this is possible.
Or, can I use a usb flash drive where this file can be placed? Then of course I will carry the usb with me from work to
home and from home to work.

I just gave these two examples to help you understand my problem and maybe
it lights up a solution.

SO how can I solve my problem?
 
Take a look here, it may help:
