If you delete records on one platform and synchronize, they may be deleted on the other platform too. The Web Edition, Pocket PC Edition, and Palm Edition all backup desktop data files before each synchronization. For the case of the Web Edition, several past copies of your desktop data file are stored in the \BACKUP\ subdirectory of the Hormonal Forecaster installation path (e.g. by default C:\Program Files\Hormonal Forecaster\Backup\). The files are named “websyncXX.hfc” where XX represents a sequential ordering of the files where 1 is a copy of the file before the last synchronization, 2 is from two synchronizations ago, etc. If necessary, you can open these files and use the Save As menu option under the File menu of the Hormonal Forecaster desktop version to create a new copy elsewhere on your computer. You should NOT work with the copy residing at this location since it will get overwritten during the next synchronization.
