Using Palm Desktop software

If you have new records you want to add to your handheld computer and prefer to use the personal computer keyboard rather than the onscreen keyboard, enter the data in the Palm Desktop software or the PIM you have installed to use with your handheld computer.

After the information is in Palm Desktop software, perform a HotSync operation to synchronize your handheld computer with your computer. See “Exchanging and updating data: HotSync operations” in Chapter 4 for more information.

Importing data

If you already have data in a database on your personal computer, you can import it into the Palm Desktop software. You can import data stored in applications such as spreadsheets and databases, or data from another Palm Computing platform device. When you import data, you transfer the records to your handheld computer without having to enter them manually. See “Importing data” in Chapter 2 for more information.
