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