Hi folks,

Done a search for this and havne't had any luck with any info that I've found.

The problem:
Outlook 2000 does not update the calender on my Axim when they sync. The Axim will update Outlook, just not the other way around. Everything else seems to sync properly.

What I've done so far:
Upgraded activesync to 3.7
Soft booted the Axim
Deleted the relationship between the computer and PPC.
Created a new relationship.
Done all of this twice!!

No results so far. Everything syncs EXCEPT my calender on the Axim. There MUST be some setting that I've overlooked, but I can't figure out what it is. PLEASE HELP!! This is really frustrating.

In ActiveSync go into "settings" for the calendar under options. Is the setting to sync all appointments, active appointments, or just in certain categories? If it is set to just certain categories, if you change to all appointments, does it work?

Its has been set to sync "all appointments". Just for grins I set it to sync only certain catagories... synced... then reset it to "all appointments"... synced it again. Still no luck.

When I turn both computers on and they make contact for the first time, activesync thinks 48 items in the calender are not synced. It says it syncs them, but doesn't actually change anything.

Any other ideas short of a hard boot?

If you go into "Tools->Resolve Items" while connected, does it have them listed? Is it asking you to choose which way to update?

No... the "resolve items" is not available for selection.

When the 2 talk for the very 1st time after a reboot of each machine, the calender says 48 items to sync. It then starts to sync... does a handful of items and calls the syncing process complete. They think they are synced, but nothing changes on the axim when they do. End result, I have a complete schedule built for the month of July on my laptop that I can't seem to transfer to my axim.

I might try a hardboot later tonight.
