The conduit resides transparently on your desktop computer, and every time you synch your Palm, the conduit automatically synchs the FileMaker Pro data you've specified. FileMaker Mobile works with single-user databases. Text, number, date and time fields are all supported. Calculation, container, and global fields aren't yet supported, however. Only here it's jazzed up a bit.
Users can click on column headings to sort ascending and descending.
The way it works is really cool. Databases are created using the familiar desktop version of FileMaker Pro. When the Mobile Companion plug-in is enabled, the file can be shared via Mobile Companion. The next time you synch, the database is automatically created on your Palm, complete with all the data. If your desktop database is a relational multi-file system, up to 50 files will be created on your Palm, ready to use.
