To Raj:

I followed your tips at http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/Categories.html.
But the behavior as to how activesync or windowsce actually manages
categories is still a mystery.

I have done what you have suggested. I have uninstalled/installed
outlook, uninstalled/installed activesync, softreset/hardreset device
and the same thing happens:

Activesync for some weird reason sync some categories and not others. I
have been doing this so many times that I know which categories are
actually synced and which ones are not. But what I can't figure out is
why these words? The words are almost constant now, the logic totally
random.

MSFT has released 4.0 and 4.1 but this problem has been here since 2000
i think. Isn't there someone smart enough in microsoft to solve this
chronic problem?
