Using File Link

To prepare your device for a network HotSync operation:
Tap the Applications icon.
Tap the HotSync icon.
Tap the Menu icon.
Tap Options, then tap Modem Sync Prefs.
Tap Network.
Tap OK.
The File Link feature lets you import Address Book and Memo Pad
information into your pda phone from a separate external file such as a
company phone list. HotSync Manager stores the data in a separate
category on your Palm Desktop and your pda phone. You can set 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 file
formats:
• Comma delimited (.csv).
• Tab delimited (.tsv).
• 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.
