Thanks for the suggestion. The folks at kaione have been friendly and somewhat helpful but they dont seem to be able to follow my problem step by step.
The more I think about it the more I believe the problem I am having is related to the initial setting up of the synchronization of files -- ie where the files will be be found on both the desktop and the Axim
Everything seems clear when I go Tools --> Options and double click the Poclet Access line.
I am taken to the Database Synchronization Settings box (which I do not see covered in any of the Help files) that shows no files listed (since I dont have any microsoft access files on my desktop, just .dbf or ODBC files).
When I click the "ADD" button I am taken to another screen which is called "OPEN" and lists a default folder on my hard drive. There are no files listed in the box because file type is listed as Microsoft Access Databases in the File Type dropdown menu.
When I open the drop down menu box and highlight "ODBC Database" a new screen appears that is called "Select Data Source" wsith two tabs -- "File Data Source" and "Machine Data Source" -- none of which seem to be covered in the Help files.
The box asks for a DSN Name and I dont know to what that refers.
The description reads "Select the file data source that describes the driver that you wish to connect to. You can use any file data source that refers to an ODBC driver which is installed on your machine" -- that just adds to my confusion.
I'll leave off here to get some feedback but I think I am getting a bit closer to being able to synch files between my desktop and Axim.
Thanks again for your help.
