How do I import .dat files into Palm OS Emulator?
Ans :- For a number of reasons, you might want to transfer the contents of one or more databases from your Palm handheld to the Palm OS Emulator. The problem with doing this is that the standard conduits for the built-in applications export and save the data for those applications in .dat files, while the Palm OS Emulator only imports data from .pdb and .prc files. There are several ways around this problem. • Synchronize your device to your desktop computer using the HotSync Manager. Use a null-modem cable to connect two serial ports on your computer. Tell the Palm Desktop software to use one port and the Palm OS Emulator to use the other port. Clear the user name in the emulated Palm OS handheld using the Preferences/Properties dialog box. Synchronize the emulated device to the Palm Desktop. When the Palm Desktop software asks, select the user name corresponding to the data you want to import. • If you do not have a null modem cable or two serial ports available, and can use Network
