I want to set up the relationship between my pocket pc, my work computer,
and my home computer so that my pocket pc is the repository for most
information but only work-related appointments and contacts appear on my
computer at work. Similarly, I don't want my massive number of work
contacts bunging up my home address book. It is hard enough to get the
Christmas cards out as it is

However, when I go to Options>>Calendar>>Settings>> and select "Synchronize
only those appointments in the following categories" (or even "Synchronize
only the x past weeks of appointments) I still get hundreds of personal
appointments ending up on my work computer.

Although I have not coded each and every personal appointment, I have coded
my work ones. Is it possible that this could be the source of the problem?

Any suggestions would be enormously appreciated.

Hi,
Category sync does not work the way you want. It is a way to specify what
is stored on the device as a subset of what is stored on the PC.

I suggest you look at Intellisync from www.pumatech.com as an alternative.
