    I am trying to get my laptop to automatically synchronize and update data on a particular folder on the hard disk with that on a particular USB stick every time I plug it into the laptop. Is there a way to go about this? I have got Vista Home Premium.
    Thanks
    Ishan

    Do you have office 2007? There is a program with Office 2007 (at least with the program I have) called Groove that does exactly this. You might also be able to use the Sync Center to do what you are after. I would spend some time on google.
