Syncing tasks between Outlook and Entourage

G

GVanWagner

Is there a practical way to do this? I'm using Entourage 2004 on my
Powerbook and trying to get my task list synced with Outlook on my Windows
system (we use task lists to co-ordinate agendas for weekly meetings). Since
Entourage doesn't sync tasks to an Exchange server, I'm looking for a method
(the simpler the better) to accomplish this so that I can, at least once a
week - daily would be better, get my task lists to match up between the two,
including attached documents, notes, etc. Is it do-able?

Thanks,

George

You can do it with my Export-Import Entourage X scripts. Read the
Installation and Outlook sections of the ReadMe. Then read the
"Synching.rtf." document (Outlook section) that describes regular synching.
It's rather complicated, but not as complicated as it sounds, especially if
you're doing only tasks - you'd only need to make the Tasks custom views,
not the others. Even so, it's not something you'd want to do more than about
once a week or so.
