Microsoft Windows CE version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

When you view the Databases folder in H/PC Explorer, the status bar may report an incorrect number of objects in the folder. The status bar reports the correct number of objects when you view other folders.

CAUSE

Synchronization is disabled, which prevents you from viewing your databases in H/PC Explorer. As a result, the H/PC Explorer status bar incorrectly reports the number of objects in the Databases folder.

RESOLUTION

To cause the H/PC Explorer status bar to report the correct number of objects, enable your Handheld PC (H/PC) to synchronize with your desktop computer. To do so, follow these steps.

WARNING: You can synchronize only one H/PC with one desktop computer. If you set up a partnership with a different desktop computer, all the synchronized data from the original desktop computer is deleted from the H/PC.

1. In H/PC Explorer, click Synchronization Manager on the Tools menu.

2. Click the "Enable Appointment, Contact, and Task synchronization" check

   box to select it.

3. Click Synchronize Now.
