[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Please explain this alert

[Vladimir Krejci]

I agree that this is very much confusing.

The first time I run into this problem I did not allow deletion of  
Mark/Space events resulting in thousands of duplicate data (I fixed  
it with "UnDupe" but lost some data during that process, luckily I  
could reinstall everything using a backup file).

Next time I allowed deletion, this time no duplicate entries, and  
although cannot be absolutely certain that no data were lost, at  
least it did not happen to recent or critical data.

Of course you should not allow deletion if you sync different  
calendars contaning different data.

It would be nice if Mark/Space could resolve this issue mainly by  
giving clear instructions to users.

Thanks
