Advanced Transfers and Merging

➤Merging and Transferring Notes from Sidekick 95

In Sidekick 95, notes are referred to as Write files, which contain text that can be formatted as you would a word processing file (e.g., bolding, italicizing, font size, paragraph align- ment, etc.).

If you transfer or merge a Write file to your BOOKMAN Sidekick and then transfer the same file back to your computer, its text formatting will be lost.

Recovering Files

Every time you transfer a file from your BOOKMAN Sidekick to your computer, as well as every time that you merge a pair of linked files, a recovery file is created on your computer. Recovery files contain all the information from the PC Sidekick file that was overwritten when you merged that file or transferred to that file.

Caution: Recovery files contain informa- tion from only the most recent time that a PC Sidekick file was transferred or merged. Each time a file is transferred or merged to a PC Sidekick file, its recovery file is overwritten.

Recovery files are saved in a subdirectory, called Recovery, located in the same directory as the BOOK- MAN Sidekick Connectivity software. All recovery files retain their original names and extensions. You can re- trieve recovery files in PC Sidekick, by opening the Recovery subdirectory, and selecting a recovery file.

Caution: If you attempt to transfer or merge a recovery file, you risk losing the information which was saved in the recovery file.
