Using your computer keyboard
If you have a lot of data to enter, or prefer to use the computer
keyboard, you can use Palm™ Desktop software or any supported
PIM to enter information. You can then perform a HotSync
®
operation
to synchronize the information on your computer with the
information on your organizer. All the main applications on your
organizer are also available in Palm Desktop software and in most
PIMs, so you don’t need to learn different applications.
Refer to Palm Desktop online Help for more information on entering
data on your computer.
Importing data
If you have data stored in computer applications such as spreadsheets
and databases, or if you want to import data from another organizer,
you can transfer the data to your organizer without having to key it in
manually. Save the data in one of the file formats listed below, import
it into Palm Desktop software, and then perform a HotSync operation
to transfer the data to your organizer.
Palm Desktop software can import data in the following file formats:
■
Comma delimited (.csv, .txt): Address Book and Memo Pad only
■
Tab delimited (.tab, .tsv, .txt): Address Book and Memo Pad only
■
CSV (Lotus Organizer 2.x/97 Mapping): Address Book only
■
Date Book archive (.dba)
■
Address Book archive (.aba)
■
To Do List archive (.tda)
■
Memo Pad archive (.mpa)
Archive formats can only be used with Palm Desktop software. Use
the archive file formats to share information with other people who
use a Palm Computing
®
platform handheld or to create a copy of your
important Palm Desktop information.
To import data:
1. Open Palm Desktop software.
2. Click the application into which you want to import data.
3. If you are importing records that contain a field with category
names, do the following:
