I don't know if this is the right place to post this...I couldn't find any
way to report it directly.

I'm using ActiveSync 4.5 (which I had to install for the DST patches) and
synching with a Treo 700W running WM5.0 .

After repeatedly removing my device connection and re-establishing a
connection, I finally figured out why some of my tasks are not showing up on
the Treo.

Tasks with "regenerate new task" set in the recurrence box, are never
sychronized. If I set the task to "every day" or "every Thursday" it will be
synchronized; when I change it back to "regenerate one week later" it will
still be there, but completing it in Outlook doesn't change the version on
the Treo, it is still unsynced.

This is a huge problem as I use a lot of these tasks to track my todo list.
Is this a known problem? Any fix in sight?

This response is no help, but do see my thread dated March 15th. I think
that this is a total failure on MS part! Their PDA update was made
available only at the last minute. It appears that their ActiveSync
application is "broken."

IMHO, someone "kicked it out the door" and it just "does not work!"

Like you, I am dead in the water!

Again, IMHO, MS might give some thought to assigning someone other than
"rookies" to the Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0 operating system platform.
