I am trying to get info from my Palm Desktop Date Book (Personal) and my Meeting Maker date book (Work) both on my Palm Handheld. When I add the conduit for meeting maker, it deletes the conduit for Palm (bonus question...any way to restore the conduit to the Palm Desktop). I don't need it to sync with Meeting Maker...just pull data off and put it on the Handheld without destroying the connection to the Palm desktop. Any ideas? I'm not adverse to a little extra work if there's a work around. It just baffles me that you can't do this in the system. Thanks.

This is off the top of my head, probably wrong and most likely not what you are asking, but here goes.

I haven't used MM in a few years and I don't remember if it is scriptable, but if it is (and if the palm desktop is) how about a script that:

1: launches MM, exports the contact data.
2. launches Palm Desktop, imports the contact data to a specific catagory
3. launches hot synch.

If Apple script is not an option- how about quickeys?

And to get the palm conduit back (there must be an eaiser way, but I don't know what it is) reinstall the palm desktop- backup you user data file first.
