Overview

Pylon Pro is a flexible database engine that takes on the look and feel of the custom Lotus Notes databases with which it is synchronized. Each custom database on your device represents only one View from the Lotus Notes custom database to which you are syncing. To sync multiple Views from the same database, you create a separate filter for each View, which then appears as a separate database on your Palm OS device. For information on configuring Pylon Pro to sync custom databases, see CHAPTER 7., “Syncing custom databases”

It is beyond the scope of this guide to describe exactly what your Pylon Pro application will look like on the device. That will depend on how you design your custom databases to look.

For information about creating custom Lotus Notes databases that are optimized for viewing on a Palm device, see “Creating device-friendly Notes databases” (page 201).

For information about creating databases that take advantage of the Pylon Pro Lookup feature, see “Implementing on-device database lookups” (page 209).
