synchronization tool

[simon275]

Does any one know a good free or cheap (paypal only) tool for synchronizing my word documents. So I can have the files on my NAS drive my desktop and and laptop. So when I come home from university having created a few new word docs and having edited others on my laptop I can connected to my home network and have it sync up with my NAS drive and my desktop.

Can you do this with "offline files" or the "briefcase" built in to XP?

Well briefcase doesn't like my file structure. And off line files isn't quite what I want.

But thanks any way.

put it on a usb and carry it around with you = instant success

why cant you just firewire connect and drag n drop?
(wireless would take longer..)

Microsoft themselves have a VERY nifty program called 'SyncToy (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/prophoto/synctoy.mspx)'.

I use that one, and it's really, really good... even for a MS product!

I would rather have it automatically done for me and non of the 3 devices have firewire ports.

Thanks guys I will try those out.
