Please log in for more thread options Hi Raj,
Thanks for taking time out to give me some advice. Unfortunately it still
did not resolve the issue.
I deleted the partnerships on the device then set up a new partnership at
home. After deleting the device on Activesync on my Office PC I set up a new
partnership there. When I got home tonight, Activesync first gives the
device a new name ie. changing it from WM_Bert (Office) to WM_Bert1 (Home)
and then requires new settings.
Most frustrating.
I just wish someone else on the forum would take a stab at how it can be
resolved.
Regards,
Bert
