Sorry if this has been addressed before, but how can I move contacts
that are on my MDA to the desktop?

Thanks,
Noah

If you have outlook (not outlook express) on your pc and activesync
installed, simply sync the device and all contacts will be added to the
outlook database. If you need them elsewhere, you can export them from
outlook on the pc after the sync.

Since there are possibilities for syncing in the wrong direction, I
strongly suggest you run a backup on your ppc to memory card and backup
the outlook data on the pc before you begin.

Since you ask this question, activesync and a legal copy of full outlook
are on the cd that shipped with the device... hope you didn't toss the
activation code ;-)
