    Default I only use Outlook on my desktop. So that's wher

    I only use Outlook on my desktop. So that's where I do most of the scheduling and all email. I have Outlook installed on the tablet, but don't really use (installed as part of office).

    Anyway, I really need an easy way to sync my GB on the desktop with the GB on the tablet. What are you guys doing for this?

    Thanks!

    Here's what I do:
    1. Use the Window's networking to Share the location of your GoBinder database on your tablet.
    2. On your desktop, have GoBinder open the database on the tablet. This makes the tablet's database the master copy. All your changes occur on one copy and can by sync'ed from your desktop into it too.

    This method presumes that when you are at the desktop that you also have your tablet with you and connected.

    Thanks to both of you for your suggestions. I guess the most important thing is synch what I've created in GB. Is there anyway (I haven't tried this at all yet) to set the 'unlock' time on the GB database? I'm referring to the way One Note can. This would let me run a synch program from my tablet to a server share. I do that with ONote and it works well. My desktop ONote uses the network version and the tablet synchs with that. Since I'm never using them both at the same time it works well, even though ONote is running on both.

    But it would work only with GB if the desktop db is unlocked or not running at all.
    Thanks!

    That's a good request. We've had other customers attempting to use 3rd party file synchronization software to sync the GB database to a desktop/network and it can't do it while the file is open. Unfortunately, this isn't going to happen until at least the next major version. I've been planning on working on the original problem for that release rather than this workaround, though (ie. sync one GB database to another). That would solve this problem and a host of others as well.
