 I have a few thousand contacts in Outlook and only want a couple hundred on
my phone. Is it possible to somehow specify a subset of contacts in Outlook
to be synced with the phone?

Windows XP SP2, Outlook 2003, Pocket PC, ActiveSync.

Best,
Christopher

 You could move those that you *don't* want on the phone to a contacts
subfolder, which won't be synced, leaving those that you do want synced in
the root contacts folder (where those contacts all are right now, probably).

Hi Greg,

I would be interested in understanding how many thousand contacts are you
presently using and how often do you wish to synchronize (the subset) to
your mobile device.
