Creating a user profile

If you use the File Link feature to configure several handheld computers with specific information (such as a company phone list) before distributing them to their actual users, you can create a user profile to load the data into an handheld computer without associating that data with a user name. The User Profile feature is designed only for the first-time HotSync operation, before you assign a User ID to a particular handheld computer.

To create a user profile:

1.Open Palm Desktop software.

2.From the Tools menu, choose Users.

3.Click Profiles.

4.Click New.

5. Enter a unique name for the profile, and click OK.

6.Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each profile that you want to create, and then click OK to return to Palm Desktop software.

7.Select the profile from the User list and create the data for the profile (e.g., company phone list, etc.).
