UltraLite User's Guide
  Tutorial: A Sample UltraLite Application
    Lesson 3: Start the sample application and synchronize

Start the application (Windows CE)

For synchronization to succeed, you must have the consolidated database server and a MobiLink synchronization server running when you start the sample application.

To start and synchronize the sample application

1. Connect your Windows CE device to your PC.

   When you start the sample application for the first time, it must be able to connect to the MobiLink synchronization server and download an initial copy of the data. This step is required only the first time you start the application. Once you have downloaded the data, it is stored in the UltraLite database.

2. Launch the sample application.

   On the CE device, choose Start > Programs > Sybase > CustDB.

3. Enter an employee ID.

   When running through this section as a tutorial, enter a value of 50 and press Enter. The application does also allow values of 51, 52, or 53, but behaves slightly differently in these cases.

   The application synchronizes after you enter the employee ID, and a set of customers, products, and orders are downloaded to your machine.

4. Confirm that the data has been synchronized into the application.

   Confirm that a company name and a sample order appear on the application window.

You have now synchronized your data.

For the next step, see Lesson 4: Add an order.
