The first time it runs, PIM Control connects you to local copies of these databases that reside on your own computer, so no login is required. This is indicated by a red Online button in the lower-right corner of the Main Window. If you click the Online button while it's red, this Login Window appears. Enter the User Name and Password that you picked when you registered with PIM Central. If you have created a shared Company database (again, with PIM Central), enter the name of your database. When you click the Done button, PIM Control will begin connecting to your database(s) and will display progress messages in the Status area. When the connections are complete, the Login Window will close. You will see a green Online button if you are online to the Global and Company databases, or a yellow Online button if you are only online to the Global database.
Clicking the Cancel button will cancel the operation and return you to the offline state, with a red Online button. Clicking the Online button while it's green or yellow will also return you to the offline state.
