I have been reading all the threads on this problem - getting the "Attention Required" message when TRYING to synch. I have tried many of the solutions offered - some have worked for a while, but I am still trying to find a solution that will work more than once.

On person suggested renaming the MAPI32.DLL file and then running FIXMAPI.EXE and rebooting. That worked and allowed me to synch ONCE, then it failed again. It is a solution, if I am willing to recreate this file every time I synch - not necessarilly a lomgterm solution.

I tried to synch without options, reboot, and try again with the options - did not work.

I made a copy of the Pocket_PC2003 directory that was under Documents and Settings and put it under the My Documents directory - that worked once, then failed again.

I can reboot, disconnect, change sych options (always repace the item...) until I am blue in the face and still can't seem to get it to synch consistantly.

I have a Axim X-5
I use Outlook 2002
System is Win XP Pro

oops - I forgot to mention that I am trying to synch Calendar, Contacts and Tasks. No mail.

Any suggestions out there??

1/24/04 update - I tried the renaming of the mapi32.dll/fixmapi solution again. This time I kept a copy of the mapi32.dll in another directory and after I had synched once, I copied it over to my Windows directory. Now I have NO problems synching, but my Eudora is upset that it can no longer rename that file (Iget an error message each time I launch my email, but I get all my messages so I don;t have a problem with that). Hmmmm....wonder if Eudora was the culprit all along? Anyhow, I am synching wonderfully and thought that might help someone having the same issue....Mar
