Syncronizing Remote BCM Databases & TREO 650s

[Gary Phillips]

I have a client that has a main BCM database on his office SBS 2003 server.
He and 3 others in the office also have laptios and want to work remotely
with local BCM databases on their laptops and then be able to sync changes to
the main server BCM database from each of their local laptop BCM databases.
They want to be able to do this remote sync either over the LAN in the office
or remotely. How can they do this with BCM? Also, they all have Treo 650 Palm
OS deivces that they want to be able to sync the Treos with thier laptop BCM
devices. What program can they use to do this Treo syncing?

Don't think there is an easy way at all to work with the BCM on a laptop away
from the "server" computer - you'll have to manually do a "merge" via the
import/export option each time and choose to update the relevant contacts,
etc. However, I know firsthand that Chapura Pocket Mirror Professional XT
works great with the Palm 650. You have to set the BCM on your computer to a
single "category" from within the settings of the Chapura product (their tech
support was great) and it will sync all the BCM contact data to the Treo and
it will show up as a part of your whole contact list. Check out
www.chapura.com for more info on that... its the only product I know of that
will do it.
