Use Preview to limit the files to be copied in the current synchronization

While previewing an agent, you can specify that certain pairs of files and folders will be omitted from the current synchro- nization: Click a pair of files or folders and then click the Skip Pair button on the toolbar. Repeat this procedure for any oth- er pairs you do not want synchronized. Then—before clos- ing Preview or quitting Xchange Agent—run the agent.

TIP You can omit file and folder pairs only from the current synchronization. To remove them from a future synchroni- zation, you must use Preview again.

Use Xchange Agent to overwrite, not merge, files

Xchange Agent overwrites files. Unless you specify other- wise, it copies the newer file to the other computer. It does not merge files. To merge databases and other shared files, use the program in which the files were created.
