| 796920 | 2009-07-31 11:08:00 | Any suggestions or recommendations please on programmes to synchronise basic files between my desktop and my laptop? Both are using XP. Reasonable simplicity required and price does matter (free is good!) Many thanks. |

| 796922 | 2009-07-31 11:18:00 | You can either use SyncBack SE to sync them over the network, but this means that both computers will have to be on. Or, you can use a web service such as SyncPlicity, Dropbox or SugarSync It'll mean that you can only sync where there is internet access and you'll need broadband. Blam |

| 796924 | 2009-07-31 11:47:00 | Nothing wrong with creating a briefcase on each computer and syncing files. Briefcase comes free with XP and does not need internet access. |

| 796926 | 2009-08-03 06:10:00 | I use SYNC BACK to do exactly what you wish to do. I SYNC 3 folders between the PC and the Laptop DATA and sub folders, email complete, and a folder containing often used stand alone utilities and non installed/standalone programs. Works very well. HH |
