SEPARATION OF 2 DESKTOPS

2482000 · Jan 16, 2003

We use Palm desktop at work and Outlook at home via Intellsync and the Palm Hot sync. I would like to keep the 2 system hot sync separated on the single Clie sj20 handheld. This is in order to not have the updates for home and work becoming merged and hard to read on the handheld unit. Likewise the home records on the work deskttop is not a good think either.

Palm ver 4.01 and Windows 2000 are the OS involved.

Does anyone have any insight as how this can be done?

It sounds like you want separate users on the handheld itself? Have you considered merging the information (home and work) and simply organizing it so it's not "hard to read"? Addresses, dates, etc may be categorized "work" and "personal". While at work look at the work category, when you leave look at the personal category. The information will be categorized on both the home and work computers. The built-in apps allow beaming of entire categories.

I, and probably the majority of everyday users organize our devices this way with much success.

I hope this helps.
