I'm using ActiveSync to sync Outlook 2002 with my Siemens SX-56, and all the phone number fields EXCEPT "Other Phone" sync to my handheld. "Other address" syncs fine, but there's no "Other phone" anywhere. Is it just me, or is there a workaround for this?

TIA

Pocket Outlook's Contacts application does not replicate every field in Outlook. Other Phone seems to be one of those missing fields.

Is there some 3rd party software that would fix this?

You could look into SYWARE's PocketExtra (http://www.syware.com/prodlib/win_ce/pocketex/pocketex.htm). It allows you to add fields to the Contacts database, but I don't know if it will synchronize the missing fields directly.

To find reviews of PocketExtra, try searching :google: (http://www.google.com) for SYWARE PocketExtra. Click on the Google picture -- it's a link. :-)
