Re: How to synchronize unlimited Ecco items to your Android device

Frank ...

As explained in detail at http://creativeservices.us/MPENotes.html
just create new folders under Call Status or Scheduling with names
of your liking. Being old fashioned I just used the old names
still in my main data file since the 90s.

Hello Friedhelm

Thanks for the
info however I have a question regarding the folders
you refer to in this email. I’m currently using the
EccoProX64 version and the Palm Pilot folder you refer
to are not in the available on my version. Can I just
create these folders or are they program files that
must be installed and if so where do I acquire them.
I know I had them on my original 4.01 version when I
was on a 32 bit platform.

Thanks for your
assistance

Frank

How to synchronize
unlimited Ecco Notepad items to your
Android device

To support the EccoPro
community over the last 17 years, we were
always faced with adjusting our beloved
software to new operating systems and with
changes to all kind of handheld devices,
necessary to take our information on the
road. It started with the original Palm
Pilot when Palm continued with webOS and
the Palm Pre.

With the appearance of
iPhones and Androids, HP, which just had
purchased Palm decided to curtail webOS
developers and the Palm Pre ended up in
the junkyard of recyclers. HP’s webOS
began with a fanfare but folded. The
convenience of carrying our Ecco data was
lost until last year when we with the help
of our members published the Ecco Edition
of MyPhoneExplorer.

Without the Ecco Source
Code the development was not an easy task.
An Ecco type application for Android or
the iPhone was! out of the question. We
were guided by the original Ecco
synchronization of the Palm Desktop which
sadly had built-in limitations by
displaying only a limited amount of Ecco
Subitems on Palm Devices.

We knew native Android
applications are not designed with Ecco's
Subitem structure in mind. Ecco's most
favorite feature "Outlining" could not be
displayed. We had to stick with the
original four Palm Synchronization Modules
Phonebook (Contacts), Calendar, Tasks and
Memos (Notes). To get more use of Memos or
Notes I will show you here how to overcome
TLI (Top Level Item) and Subitem
limitations.

Open the Ecco "Folder
Window". The original Palm Synchronization
created three new folders under "New
Columns", "Pilot Archive" (Folder Type:
CheckMark), "Pilot No Notes" (Folder Type:
CheckMark) and "Pilot Memos" (Folder Type:
Pop-Up List). Let us change the name of
the "Call Status" Folder (Folder Type:
CheckMark, Picture 3) to "Action" and
move/create three new folders with the
names above and the same properties as Sub
folders into the "Action" folder (see
Picture 4).

Picture 4

In my example I changed
the original "date" folders under "Action"
-> "Call Back", "Left Msg" and "Last
Call" to "Calls", "Re-call", "Reminders"
and "Follow-ups". If you have not done so,
I prefer the Tickler section on top, click
Calendar -> Show Tickler Section on
Top. If Columns don't show click on Column
-> Show Columns.

Now click on Column ->
Insert Column -> "Existing Column or
Folder" and scroll down to click the
"Action" folder (see Picture 5).
Right-click the "Action" Column header
-> Properties and choose "For each
Item, cell displays: Sub Folders of
"Action" that contain Item". In the Folder
Window right-click "Pilot Memos" ->
Properties and add "Pop-up values&qu!
ot; like Business, Personal, Private or
any of your choice. In MyPhoneExplorer on
your Desktop click on File -> Settings
-> Sync -> Notes (Sync with "Ecco")
-> Advanced and under your Ecco
Database choose the Folder "Pilot Memos"
(see Picture 6).

Your Android ph! one's
client of MyPhoneExplorer offers you two
beautiful Widgets, MPE Tasks and MPE Notes
(see Picture 1). If you click the "Action"
column next to any entry in Ecco's
Calendar or in any Notepad and choose
"Pilot Memos" (plus a choice of Pop-Up
Value) you have a simple way to move TLIs
and Subitems to your Android device. If
used the next MyPhoneExplorer
synchronization will transfer an unlimited
amount of your TLIs and Subitems to MPE
Notes. Tap the MPE Notes Widget and it
will show you all Notes with the latest
Note on top (see Picture 2).

You might also add the
column "Pilot Memos" to the folder "Pilot
Memos" (see Picture 7). It will show all
your Pop-Up Values related to separate
entries (see picture 7). Additionally, you
might sort the column "Pilot Memos" to
accommodate different projects.

Memos Notepad View

Here is a Calendar view
with the "Action" column at the right and
the Folder Window to the left (Picture 8).
To bypass the synchronization to your
Android device you might archive your
Pilot Memos by just clicking "Pilot
Archive" in the "Action" column related to
your Calendar entry. Do not forget to
adjust your MyPhoneExplorer sync
accordingly, don't use "Sync both" choose
"Force Ecco -> phone" or the Android
item will be synced back to Ecco's folder
"Pilot Memos".
