Does anybody know, which ID ActiveSync is using to find the Calendar
and Taskitems. (OID is not the right one)
On the PC we know, that PR_SEARCH_KEY is a uniq ID to do such things,
but how to do that on the PPC ?

Thank you.

Outlook on the desktop uses ENTRYID, but these are not synced with the
device (which uses OIDs - integers). If you want to work out the match
yourself (because the method used by ActiveSync is not documented) you'll
need to compare on other properties. In the case of Calendar items you might
check the start time and subject for example.

Thank you.

I have developed a solution to synchronize items per FTP and i use my own
syncID's but, after the user changes to ActiveSync, he gets duplicated items
of couse. I was hoping to find the mechanism which ActiveSync is using.
