Changing how information is imported

When you import information to your Newton device, the information is
transferred using a field map. This field map acts as a template to determine
how information from your computer’s application is mapped to information
in your Newton application.

In most cases, the default field map works fine for importing information, but
you can change the field map to meet your specific needs. For example, you
might change the field map to include custom fields in your computer’s
application.

You can further refine importing of information by choosing a date range for
calendar information, specifying how conflicting information is handled, and
setting application-specific options. See Chapter 10, “Setting Advanced
Options.”
