Hi there,



I'm just wondering if anyone on this Newsgroup would be able to explain to
a total moron how to set up Outlook on two different computers that read
the same datafile.



I have a desktop and a notebook, and I'd like to have access to my
contacts and old emails when I go out, and should I make any changes or
additions whilst I'm on the road I'd like to have them automatically sync
up when I get back to the office.



I have tried to tell my notebook's Outlook to use the datafile on the
desktop, but it comes back saying that the .pst file cannot be shared,
even though I have shared the folder on the desktop where it lives. I
have also tried setting this up with the pst file in two different shared
folders on the desktop.



I'm also trying to get my head around Briefcase, but if anyone knows of a
better alternative when it comes to taking files out in the notebook and
have them sync up when I get back, that would be super as well!
