Synchronize Button

The Synchronize button starts synchronization. You can click this button even while Siebel Remote is doing something that might not be visible to the user, such as connecting to the local database or extracting local database modifications.

If you click Synchronize, then Siebel Remote hides the synchronization dialog box and sets the label on the button to Stop. If you click Stop, then Siebel Remote stops the synchronization. If synchronization finishes, then Siebel Remote sets the label for the button to OK. Clicking the button again hides the synchronization dialog box.

Cancel and Hide Labels on the Synchronize Button

Clicking Synchronize automatically hides the synchronization dialog box unless you hold down the SHIFT key when you click Synchronize. To display a hidden dialog box, you can click the corresponding icon in the tray.

If the synchronization dialog box is displayed:

• And if synchronization has not started, then clicking Cancel closes the synchronization dialog box and aborts synchronization.

• And if synchronization has started, then Siebel Remote sets the label on this button to Hide. Clicking Hide hides the synchronization dialog box. If the dialog box is hidden while synchronization is running, then starting synchronization redisplays the dialog box. If synchronization is finished, then starting synchronization resets and redisplays the dialog box.
