I'm writing a GMail/Outlook contact sync program -- not an Outlook Add- On really, it runs outside of Outlook. Also mine is specific to Outlook 2007 using a local PST (other people are already selling Exchange sync apps). The real difficulty is that the Google API is still somewhat incomplete, and the two data models are quite a bit different in almost every field you'd want synchronized. As if that wasn't bad enough, neither data model exposes anything which a developer can use to determine which of two duplicate entries is newer (like a last-updated timestamp).
It's a lot more complex than it seems like it ought to be. On Feb 26, 4:01 pm, filmjbrandon <[email protected]> wrote: > Is anyone actively developing an Outlook Addon to sync Google > Contacts?
