I don't know why it would take hours to install Palm Conduit or Pocket
Mirror (software that came with your Palm) and have it sync your Outlook
contacts with your device.

Now I need to transfer my Outlook 2003
contacts to my office computer, which has Outlook 2000. How do I do
this?

Sync your Palm with the other PC.

Thanks Brian. Yes, I agree, why DID it take so long? I don't know. I kept getting a unique error message, 'hot sync operation failed because message has been changed.' No one seems to know what this means. After a lot of experimentation, reboots, subsequent removals and re-additions, and narrowing the field to only contacts, it worked. My problem is that my computer at work is on a very strict network, and they will not allow a palm sync to outlook. I need to figure out how to take the contact file I was able to get into outlook 2003, put it on a compact disc, and get it into outlook 2000. I don't know how to do this or what file to look for, etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.
