See "Exchanging and updating data: HotSync operations" in Chapter 4 for more information. Importing data If you already have data in a database on your computer, you can import it into Palm Desktop software. You can import data stored in computer applications such as spreadsheets and databases, or from another Palm OS handheld. When you import data, you transfer the records to your handheld without having to enter them manually. See "Importing data" in Chapter 2 for more information.
