Hi BatFans,
A couple weeks ago I did an archives search on synching The Bat!
address book with Palm devices. (I have a Palm IIIx) All I found was
info on synching email messages with Palm.
Palm Desktop 4.x has a "File Link" feature that allows you to
synchronize csv (comma-separated variable) files with a Palm device. I
used The Bat's "Export" command in Address Book to create a CSV file,
and using a File Link in Palm Desktop, the address book entries came
right in to my Palm IIIx, and life is good. I'm not sure if the "File
Link" thing is new in Palm Desktop 4, but it works nice.
I did have to map the fields thru a fields dialog, but then the data
came right in. Palm wants to assign all items brought in this way to
a special category, so I assigned them to a new "bataddress" category.
Anybody else doing this address book synch between The Bat! and Palm
Pilot devices via File Links, and if so, discovered any issues or
caveats?
