Not an Outlook question, I'm afraid. How various sync software handles the
"private" setting is solely within their purview, not Outlook's.

thanks russ,
Sorry for being an outlook newbie,when he marks it as private,how does
that
work.I mean,will it ask for a password when he syncs outlook with his
palm.
Apparently that would happen when he used his palm application,but now he
wants the same from outlook and i dont know too much about that side of
outlook
Thanks again for your assistance

You can mark Outlook contacts as private, but not individual fields.
