I am running XP Pro and have Office 2007 at work. I have all of my
personal and work contacts in my "windows mobile smart phone". I sync my
phone to work PC and don't really want my personal contacts on my work PC.
I there a way to categorize and separate my contacts so that only work
related contacts are sync'd at work?
Assign your work contacts a category like "Work". Start ActiveSync and
click Options. Select Contacts and click Settings. Click the radio
button labeled "Synchronize only those contacts in the following selected
categories" and uncheck all but the "Work" category. Click OK, then OK.
Note: if you wish to sync at home as well, you'll have to tell ActiveSync
that you will be synching to two PCs when you create the partnership at
work.
Then, once I get my Outlook working at home, I want ALL of my contacts to
sync to that PC. Hope there is a way to accomplish this.
At home, just configure the partnership with the default settings for the
Contacts, which will sync all contacts.
By the way, Outlook does not take an active role in the sync process.
There are no settings within Outlook that will affect the sync process.
It's completely up to the sync software so if there are sync issues, you
should ask in the proper newsgroup: microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync
