Performing a network HotSync operation

After you prepare your computer and your handheld, and select your
Conduit Setup options, you are ready to perform a network HotSync
operation.

To perform a network Hotsync operation:

Tap the modem HotSync icon to begin the operation.

Using File Link

The File Link feature enables you to import Address Book and Memo
Pad information onto your handheld from a separate external file such
as a company phone list. HotSync Manager stores the data in a
separate category on your Palm Desktop software and your handheld.
You can configure the File Link feature to check for changes to the
external file when you perform a HotSync operation.

With File Link, you can import data stored in any of the following
formats:

Comma-separated (*.csv)

Memo Pad archive (*.mpa)

Address Book archive (*.aba)

Text (*.txt)

For information on how to set up a file link, see the Palm Desktop
online Help.

Note:

The File Link feature is not available in Palm Desktop software

for the Macintosh.
