MS Outlook Palm/Pocket PC

   Our application allows the user to link the calendar to MS Outlook.  This gives our clients the ability to take their appointments with them on a palm pilot or pocket pc (since they both link to ms outlook as well).  The problem is with recurring events created from the Codejock calendar control.  The events show up in ms outlook but will not sync to the device.  

Error message received...
The multi-day repeating appointment titled
test 1 beginning 06/28/2007 00:00:00 AM cannot be converted for use on
the Handheld. Please divide the appointment up into single-days and
re-synchronize.

After doing some thorough research I found that if I simply bring up the recurring event (created from codejock calendar) in ms outlook, click recurrence, and re-save it, it will then sync fine.  It's as if a property or some value that ms outlook is expecting from codejock is not being set.  The other thing I noticed is that the "end after X occurrences" and the "end by" values are blank when I load the recurring event (created from codejock calendar).  After re-saving, it populates these fields with values... 

Any idea what could be causing this?  What values should be set?

Please help!!

Thanks,
Michael
