Saving Data; Loading Data - Casio PV-750 Plus User Manual

Working with PC sync
To start transmission, select [OK] on your PC, followed by the Start button on the cradle. If
you are using a PV-200e unit, tap the PC sync icon in the lower left corner of its screen.
During reception a status box is displayed, telling you how far transmission has pro-
gressed. To stop transmission on the PC, choose [Abort].
After the BN/PV Unit has succesfully ended transmitting data, the data is displayed in
PC sync.

3.2.3 Saving Data

To save data to disk immediately after transmission, without further editing, choose 'File':
'Save'. A file selector box is presented, prompting you to enter the desired file name and
path under which you want to save your data to disk (e.g. c:\data\private.twf).
Unless otherwise specified, PC sync automatically adds the extension ".twf". We recom-
mend that you do not enter an extension, unless you specifically want to use some other
extension. PC sync will respect your decision, though we do suggest that you only use
".twf".
As soon as you have specified a file name and path, choose [OK] to start saving to disk. If
the file name already exists, a query is presented, asking you whether you wish to overwrite
the existing file.
Note:
If the mode you save to a file has more than 16.000 entries, you may not be able to open
the file.

3.2.4 Loading Data

In this section we want to comment briefly on the reading of files that have been saved to
disk.
Loading TWF files
To load a file, choose 'File': 'Open...'. The same file selector box is presented that is also
used for saving data. It contains a list of all the files with the extension "twf" in the current
directory. If you want to display file names with other extensions, specify the relevant mask
directly under "File name" or select one of the predefined masks via "List files of type".
Next, set the path and name of the desired file and choose [OK]. The relevant file is now
read in and displayed in the display window of the database area that was active when the
file was last saved.
Loading Data from Other Link Programs
If you own another link program that does not allow you to load data directly, then the
simplest way of reading its data is to transmit it from the other link program back to the
CASIO Digital Diary and then to PC sync.
