There is then a master database that all

file is a common folder and ours are not
common we sync the Treos by copying the
common file to our non common file then sync
that file to the phone. It is something that
we would like to have seemless and so it
would sync changes immediately rather than
once a month when we do the copy and sync.

Synching issues all lie with the sync software. Outlook itself has no part
in the sync process. You should consider using a more capable sync tool.
