How Can I upgrade Outlook to work with an HP iPAQ

[D. Livermore]

I am running OUTLOOK 2002 on my desktop, and also on my HP iPAQ and synching
the two. I want to upgrade to a 2003 or 2007 version. If I upgrade the
desktop, will it transfer the upgrade to the iPAQ and write/synch with no
problem, or will I have to get a special version for the iPAQ? If I need to
install the program upgrade from the iPAQ to the desktop as in the original
installation of the iPAQ, where do I find the upgrade?

You need to do nothing if you upgrade. What you have on your iPAQ is Outlook Mobile - it will not change. PDA makers include a copy of Outlook 2002 for those who do not already have a copy of Outlook on their machines. I have never had to use the OEM copy of Outlook and my Axims sync perfectly (until one died this week, that is).
