You're also missing including enough information to help you. State your
Outlook version, ActiveSync version, account type, and sync options in
ActiveSync.

Hi Brian,
I'm using Outlook 2000, ActiveSync 3.8, Guest. In options, I've checked the
boxes for Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Inbox, Notes, Files and Avantgo. Also
unchecked the box for 'Enable synchronisation with server' (this probably is
not the problem as I've tried checking and unchecking this box before sync
and to no effect). Thanks

Gary

I think this last is your problem. The Guest partnership cannot
synchronize. You must create a partnership what matches your PDA's name in
order to sync. This is all in ActiveSync's Help. You should read it
sometime.
