Default Any ways to go Palm to Outlook without losing custom fields in

Actually there is a way to do it. It has been a while (Palm Vx), so
I don't remember exactly how I did it. But it was one of the
following:

1. Export from Palm to a csv file, then import to Excel or Access. I
believe custom mapping is then available.

I don't think Outlook by itself can import custom fields from Access or
Excel, either.

2. 3rd party software like Chapura's Pocket Mirror or Intellisync.
(some versions of Palm PDA's come with a free verison, you may want
to upgrade for advanced functionality
3. If you haven't you could also check out:
http://www.palm.com/us/support/outlooksupport.html they have some
free Oulook Sync software depending on your Palm version.

Exactly what I said: it's up tp the sync software, not Outlook.
