This thread (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=20622&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30) indicates that you MUST have ActiveSync 3.7 or greater with Outlook 2003. However, also note that a lot of people have problems right now with ActiveSync 3.7.1, so you probably want just 3.7. The thread I linked to shows you where you can get it.

Outlook 2003 by itself will work with Pcoket PC 2003 - but don't count on the Business Contact Manager working - - - - Microsoft said it is "by design" that they don't work together now.

And personally, Outlook 2003 without the BCM is not worth the upgrade.
