Especially with a view to data transmission, though, it is worth remembering that both the BN/PV Units and PC sync treat secret and open data of a database area as totally independent and separate from one another. On both computers any transmission therefore concerns either secret or open data (but not both) depending on the currently active area at the time of transmission - unless you have explicitly specified that the secret data, for instance, should be appended to the open data. 3. 2. 11 Data Import and Export The following section uses data export in dBase-Format to show you how it is possible to exchange data with other programs using the import and export functions. In this example we assume that there are already data in the Personal Contacts. Change to the Personal Contacts and select 'Export. . . ' from the 'File' menu. A dialog box appears in which the desired export format can be defined. For this example select "DBF (xBase standard)". Confirm your entry with [OK] which brings you to a file selector box in which you should enter the name under which the data is to be exported onto disk or hard disk e. g. After entering the file name a dialog box appears with the available field mappings. A field mapping is required as different programs have different structures concerning the format and number of individual fields within a record. In order to export the PC sync fields to other programs in a particular order, you must specify a list of the fields to be exported and not exported. Each list is therefore a field mapping list . To differentiate between the lists, (field mapping lists) each one receives a name which is chosen from the dialog box. As we wish to specify a new field mapping in this example, choose [New. . . ] give the field mapping a name (e. g. A dialog box divided into two sections is now displayed which enables you to allocate the individual fields. The left-hand side shows a list of all the fields available in the Personal Contacts and the right-hand side shows a list of all the fields to be exported. You can now customize the right-hand list according to your requirements, using the buttons [Add]/[Add All] and [Remove]/[Remove All]. To create an empty field select <Dummy>. For our example you should export the fields "Name", "Address (H)", "Dummy" and "Phone (H)" in the given order. To do so, first click on [Name] on the left-hand side and then on [Add]. A further dialog box now appears enabling you to enter another name in the field name and to define the maximum number of characters.
