Hi all,

I read all posts on syncing and still have a question. I like hotsync and use the CO for PC software, however I would like to only sync my outlook appointments with Datebook, going forward, but still keep syncing with with CO for eveything else, is this possible? or would be best solution be to copy/ paste my appointments into CO and then just hotsync?

thanks for the help

I use LiveSync.
This program allows you to selectively synchronize PDA applications with one or multiple PC applications.
It is smart enough to recognize the base Palm applications, and allows you to tell each application to synch with multiple PC applications - I use it for Outlook and Palm CO so that the icons, heirachy and colors are maintained on the handheld. I have NOT done extensive testing on the program, but it works for me, maintaining data entered into the PC or PDA synchronized. I have found, however that you must diable the ToDo conduit that links to CO for PC in order for everything to work properly. I suppose that this is because CO reads from the base Palm Desktop application for data. Again, I have not tested extensively, so some things like recurring appointments may not work properly. BACKUP ALL DATABASES. I lost all my addresses once playing with the settings.
Another drawback:
It's documentation is very slim.
