Calendar Categories Not Transfered

The category list on my Treo 800w is the same for contacts and calendar events. Outlook is getting the category list from my phone for contacts, but my Outlook Calender is not getting the categories from my phone.

Is this a known issue with all ppc's or a bug on my device?

Is there a workaround?

Are you talking about birthdays, anniversaries, appointments....those kind of categories?

I suppose that you could make categories named like that. On the ppc there is a place to select a category. It is a drop down menu in the list of data for a contact or event. Outlook 2003 has a list at the lower left hand corner of any contact or event called categories. The categories for contacts on the pc match the same categories on my ppc, but the categories for events do not. The catagory list for events in Outlook is still just the default categories that Outlook lists as examples.
