You are talking about a "move/transfer" and "sync". Let's cover the "move" part first. There are several ways to accomplish this task, but since you have Entourage 2004, I would use the new Export function. Look under File in the menu bar. There is an option to export by category. If you assign a category "work" then this will get all your work mail exported. The file that is created is a .rge file. This file can be imported into Entourage on another computer. Another option is to export your projects. Another way to move a folder is to create an MBOX file of a folder. If you drag a folder to the desktop, Entourage will create an MBOX file than you can drag back into Entourage. More on MBOX here: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/glossary/mbox.html> You also might want to create a custom view of all your work mail then drag that folder to the desktop. The ability to sync is another animal all together. One option is to do this with a shared project in Entourage 2004. Previous versions don't have this ability, though. See <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/database/sync.html> for some options on syncing. Using an IMAP account might be your best option. There are "delete duplicates" scripts that can help. <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq_topic/duplicates.html> -- Diane Ross Mac MVP Entourage Help Page <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
