Rick, you need to find your profile directory under Palm Desktop installation in Program Files or wherever it is on your computer. Then you could simply make a backup of that. Then you can play with your HandEra anyway you wish. If it goes wrong you can simply bring back your profile and instruct Palm Desktop to override content of your handheld with the content of your desktop. HTH.
