I installed outlook 2007 on my office & home computers. I did the office
first. On my home computer there are no messages in my inbox, but they are
there on my office computer. How do I get them to show up in both places.

your settings on your work pc are telling the email server to remove the
emails when you read them to the local pc.

on your work pc you need to configure it so when you read the email they
stay on the server so your home pc can pick them up as well.

Make sure your home pc also keeps the emails on the server also.

What type of account on each PC? I'm guessing POP.

Configure each machine to leave copies of messages on the server. That's on
the Advanced tab of the account properties dialogue. Configure one of the
machines to delete messages from the server when Deleted Items is emptied
and after X number of days.

I did as you suggested, but I still can not get my new mail on my work
computer. I ran a test and nothing showed up in new mail. However when I hit
the send/receive icon the message showed up. There must be a better way. I
can't be constantly hitting send/receive all day at work. Have you any
suggestions?

Presumably that involved sending yourself a message? That will not show up
any errors.
Go to Tools-Account Settings, highlight the account, click on Change, and in
that dialog box click on "Test Account Settings". That will come up with
error messages that can be used to diagnose the problem.

I did this and the test message did not show up. If I clicked on send/receiev then I got the test message. What can I do so that the message shows up without having to go to send/receive all the time?

You don't need to. The "Test Account Settings" box will show errors IN THE
BOX if there are any. Wait for the Test Account Settings to complete.
