Sync problem: Two sections created with PDA name. Only one section

[Jonathan]

All:
A search did not turn up a reference to this: I have two sections in my
ON2007 that are called by the PDA name. ON has appended a (2) to the second
one and it's this second one that does not show up in the ON on the PDA.

Anyone know how to stop this behavior?

Is there any content in the second one? If not (or if you don't care about
it) can't you just delete the second one?

Aloha, Ben, from the Big Island. This section appeared during some
(pda-specific?) operation, because at first there was just one. There was
content in each. I moved what I wanted to the mobile section that was syncing
correctly. Now I have to see if it re-creates itself.

I had to re-install everything a while back (very recent Tablet WinXP OS)
and made the mistake of downloading and trying to install ActiveSync 4.5. It
wouldn't install so stripped it out and installed 4.2. OK, should have been
OK, but unlike my previous use of 4.2 (before starting fresh) Contacts
wouldn't sync. Some report the same issue with a mysterious (even to MS)
"Error 800703fa". MS posted a RapidPublish notice in October with no
resolution or cause found.

With what I could find on the web I bet this extra section is a ActiveSync
issue. I will have to back everything up and do a hard reset. I am a recent
convert from Palm and I got a bit used to that (and confident that everything
re-appeared) but I'll have to see if WM5 is as good at picking itself up from
the dirt and going on as usual...

Thanks for your reply!
