Navigating custom databases in the Pylon Pro Workspace

By default, the Pylon Pro Workspace is the initial screen that appears when you run the Pylon Pro application for the first time.

If no databases are loaded, then a No custom databases installed message displays in the Workspace. For instructions on how to install custom databases on your Palm OS device, see “Installing custom databases on a Palm OS device” (page 161)

The Pylon Pro Workspace on a Palm OS device displays the following information:

■Notes icon: The icon from the Lotus Notes database design is translated to an icon in the Pylon Pro Workspace. The familiar image makes it easy to quickly identify which database you want to work with.

■Notes database title: The title of the Lotus Notes database is displayed at the bottom of the box. If the name is too long to fit in the box, it is truncated, and an three dots (...) are appended to the string.

■Number of records: The number of records currently in the database is displayed at the top right corner of the box.

This is different from Lotus Notes Workspace, which displays the number of unread documents on an icon.

Here is an example of how your Pylon Pro Workspace might look:

By tapping the Additional Features drop-down arrow associated with a database, you can:

■Display an Information dialog box containing information about the database, including:

■the full Title of the Lotus Notes database.

■the Lotus Notes User name and Pylon Pro license number at the time of synchronization. This information is updated every time the Palm device database design is updated with a Desktop overwrites Handheld sync action.

■the number of Bytes used up by the database design and data.

■Delete the selected database from the Palm device memory.
