Create a remote message type on Windows Mobile

If you have Windows Mobile services installed, you can set up SQL Remote for ActiveSync synchronization from Sybase Central. This option sets your directory for FILE message link messages to be the ActiveSync directory. When you dock your Windows Mobile device to your desktop computer, ActiveSync keeps the files in your desktop computer's ActiveSync directory synchronized with those in the Windows Mobile ActiveSync directory.

To set up SQL Remote ActiveSync synchronization

1. Connect to a database as a user with DBA authority.

2. From Tools, choose SQL Anywhere 11 » Edit Windows Mobile Message Type.
