I connect to our exchange server both from a mac and a pc. Calendars and
Contacts are always sync¹ed, but for some reason Tasks are not? Are these
not stored on the exchange server (doubtful)? Help!

Entourage Tasks do not sync to the Exchange server. Nor Notes.

You could create a shared Project and include all your Tasks there. Then you
could access them from any computer which has your Exchange account. Since
Projects can be stored on any server, I'd think that you could store it
somewhere on the Exchange server, although you might need to arrange for how
and where to locate it there. You'll need to read up on Projects in the
Entourage 2004 Help.

Has anyone created a Project on their Exchange Server?

Thanks for the information Paul. Specifically I need to exchange this
information between Entourage and Outlook which makes this even more
complicated (as I assume the Entourage project won¹t be Œreadable¹ in
Outlook). Grrr.

No they won't. You'd better use calendar events instead of tasks, as best
you can.
