You
need to locate the case database from your old handheld
and copy it to your new device.
The case database is contained in a file called AnestatsDB.PDB
on your desktop computer. The easiest way to find this
file is to search your hard drive for this name. The file
is usually found in the path:
PC: My Computer>Drive C>Program Files>Palm>Users>[your
HotSync ID]>Backups
Mac: Macintosh HD>Applications>Palm>Users>[your
HotSync ID]>Backups
If
you have already run Anesthesia StatTracker on your new
handheld and performed a subsequent HotSync, there will
be two copies of this file on your computer. You will
need to determine which one contains the data from your
older device. You can usually recognize the older data
because the file size will be much larger than the size
of the new AnestatsDB.PDB file. You can also tell the
older file because it will be in the Backups folder of
the HotSync ID associated with your older handheld.
We STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you make backups of both
of these files before continuing in case you choose
the wrong file by mistake.
Once you have found the proper file, open the Palm Desktop
software and choose Install... from the button on the
left (PC) or from the HotSync menu (Mac). Now choose the
correct AnestatsDB.PDB file and install it to the new
device. When you start Anesthesia StatTracker on your
new handheld, you should see your old case list appear.
