Why are archived tasks not removed from pda with sync anymore?

[smitlc00]

I have a pda with Windows Mobile 5. It cannot handle processing all of my
tasks including completed ones, so I have started archiving my completed
tasks on the Outlook desktop by dragging them to the Tasks in Archive Folder
icon. Then when I sync, my pda will no longer contain those archived tasks.
This stopped working about 2 weeks ago. Now tasks that are in the archive
folder on the desktop still appear on my pda.

Not an Outlook problem but a setting you need to change in ActiveSync or on
the PDA. Ask in an activesync news group -
microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync is where the experts hang out.
