Any way to get both Home and Work numbers to Palm with Synch

Folks,

The Entourage Handheld Sync 10.1.4 conduit installs either the Home OR
the Work numbers to a Palm during a synch. Is there any way to get
both these numbers to the infernal Palm or are we stuck with this
ridiculous and really unusable method. I either get only my contacts
home numbers or just company numbers.

Apologies if this has been addressed ad nauseam in other postings ...
couldn't find any which addressed it.

Am using Entourage vX 10.1.5 on a TiBook under 10.3.3

Regards,

Steve Jamieson

For 8 years Palm refused to add a second address to the Palm. Both times
Entourage came out with a new version and Palm conduit, the Palm OS allowed
only one address. There was nothing Entourage developers could do about
this, aside from giving you the choice as to which to sync, home or work.
(There are problems with home - stick to work.)

Finally, a few months ago Palm came out with a new Palm OS (5.2, I think)
for the Tungsten E and T3 that allows both addresses, without alewrting MS
even by 1 day, let alone several months. So now you'll have to wait a few
months for Entourage to catch up. I don't imagine they can really get going
on this until after their imminent new 2004 release is out.

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X.
It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise.

I sync with a T2 and I get Work, Home and Mobile phone numbers to come
across without doing anything special. Only one shows up in the alpha list,
but opening any contact to see the details shows all three phone numbers.

Multiple addresses is a different problem.
