System Overview - Palm

The PocketLog system for Palm consists of four programs that work in conjunction with other software on your PC.

  1. Forms Designer - this program allows you to create the Forms you need for data collection. You can have multiple files, each containing multiple Forms. The files are saved in XML format to insure compatibility and long life. This is the same Forms Designer as used by the PocketPC system.

  2. User Manager - this program allows you to:

    • Add a new user to the PocketLog system.

    • Specify the file type and destination where a user's data will be saved.  You can save as an Access database, Excel spreadsheet, or as a csv text file.

    • Specify what Forms will be downloaded to a specific user.

  3. Conduit - this is a dll that is called by the Palm HotSync program. The PocketLog dll handles the actual data communication between the PC and the Palm.  The Conduit saves the data from the Palm in the format of your choice - text file, Excel spreadsheet, or Access database.

  4. Palm Program - the Palm program does the actual data collection.  You can also define your Forms on the Palm for quick changes in the field.
