I have gotten a laptop computer and want to set up Outlook Express 6 the same
as on my desktop. On the desktop I use Outlook Express as my email program
but maintain my contacts in Outlook from Office 2000. I have not been able
to get my contacts in Outlook to show up in Outlook Express as they do on my
laptop. Both systems have Windows XP. What do I need to do to enable this?
 
What Outlook version are you using now? Only the long abandoned IMO mode of
Outlook 2000 permitted sharing with OE.
 
Outlook 2000 SP-3 (9.0.0.6627) is the version installed on both machines. I
figured if it worked on my desktop it would work the same on my laptop but I
must not have set the two up the same when I installed on the laptop.

Well see if you did. It's the mail support mode we need to know:
Corp/Workgroup or Internet Mail Only (IMO).
If you aren't sure, look at Help | About.

It's set for Internet Mail Only on the desktop and I changed the laptop to
the same but still don't see the Outlook addresses in Outlook Express. Is
there more to do?

I am using MicroSoft Office 2003 on three networked computers. How do I sync
up my calenders and contacts so each time I make a change it will show up on
all the calenders/contacts? Please advise.

Go to Outlook Express. Enable sharing it its Address Book (Tools > Options).
