Synchronizing the Palm and Outlook
The act of synchronizing data between the
Palm and another application is called a
HotSync
. In the context of Outlook, this is the
process where the records in a specific folder are synchronized with
a matching item type on the Palm. A comparison of the relationship on
item types between the two programs is shown in Table 16-3.
When a HotSync is requested, the software compares each record on the
Palm against the records on the PC. The default action is to
Synchronize the files. When this happens, the
HotSync software looks at the internal date stamp of each record to
decide how to proceed. Table 16-3 shows how records
are synchronized. The Actions column define an action on the part of
the user, the HotSync Synchronize Command column details how this
action is resolved.
