Default Connecting two calendars Outlook 03

I have Outlook 03, working on my laptop computer plus, when travelling/away
from the PC, I have a Pocket PC.

My address book sync's perfectly, yea!... but I now have two calendars on my
laptop, one appears to be housed on my PC (it's called "calendar" ) and the
other on the exchange server (it's called "calendar in Mailbox")

If I accept an appointment, while hooked up to my laptop, it syncs to
"calendar" and if I accept via my Pocket PC it syncs to "Calendar in
mailbox". I then have to manually go in and move appointments from one to
the other to use them.

My aim is to have all my appointments go into 1 single calendar and have
both the laptop and Pocket PC sync to together.

BTW.. I house all my e-mails on my Laptop, and not on the exchange server.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

By the way, why don't you want your laptop to connect with Exchange?

The laptop is connnect to the Exchange server, and my PST files are on my
laptop. It sync's up with the Exchange server, when I connect either via the
LAN or WAN. New e-mails download etc.

It appears that I have a calander folder on the Exchange server, and one on
my laptop, and ideally I would like just 1 calendar folder, that can be
sync'd with the Pocket PC, Exchange and my Laptop. Does not matter where it
sits, just that it is up-to-date...

I am told by my ID department that as I have my e-mail on my PC (to refer to
while travelling) my calendar also has to be on my laptop as well. I am
hoping that I can seperate the two of them.

I use a PDA to synch my Exchange mailbox on my work PC with a PST on my home
PC. Have the work use the Exchange mailbox for delivery and the home PC use
the PST. Sync the PDA with both PCs, not the Exchange server.

Still, why are you using a PST and not Cached Exchange mode?

Youre ID department is whacked. Change your laptop to use the Exchange
server as the delivery location and configure it to use Cached Exchange
mode. In that mode, your laptop works exactly the same whether connected or
not, in the office or not. You do need to use a VPN or RPC over HTTP,
though.
