Re: Outlook 2003 fully functional on 5gig UBB drive

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Here is my situation. I have a laptop and I may need to send it in for repair
and could be without it for a couple of weeks. I travel and want to plug in
my 5gig drive into other PCs and be able to function remotely, from office to
office. This is why I do not want my pst files to remain on the other
computers in my offices as I travel around, but I will want Outlook to remain
current on the 5gig so that when I sync with my laptop, or move to another
office, it will always be current. Does this clarify what I am doing? (I am
sorry I am taking so much of your time. We probably could have had this done
in one phone conversation) Thanks again for your help.
