Yes , thank you , got that part, and works great to transfer a word doc from my desktop to pda, now the other prob I have is I can transfer a word doc composed on my pda, but when I go to open it on my desktop word its a jumbled mess.

You need to abandon the pocket version of Excel and Word altogether - WMDC does not offer a way to convert these files into regular Excel & Word files and Office 2007 cannot translate them into a compatible format. When you create Excel or Word files on your pocket pc, you need to save them as Word 97/2000 or Excel 97/2000 documents. Then when you copy them to your computer you can open them in Office 2007.

no conversions

It appears that the Vista Sync Center does NOT convert files like ActiveSync does. I have seen this posted elsewhere too.
I hope someone finds a fix for this, cause it is sure a pain to have to do saveas on everything!
