Hi!
I took this from their manual, hope it helps you:

Importing and exporting categories:
"Import category" and "Export category" are useful for importing raw hex codes (IR codes) in Pronto hex format. IR codes are the training data within your button. The IR code has nothing to do with the button color/shape/location etc., it is only the training contained within the button.

Here is an example of how to use the "import" function. The IR codes are imported through the MemoPad application. OmniRemote imports any buttons that it finds in MemoPad which match buttons in the current category. It does this by button name. The entries in MemoPad have the button name and category name in them.

Start by creating your new buttons in OmniRemote (make sure every one has a button name, even if it's blank or just has an icon on it), then when you're done go to Menu|Advanced|Databases|Export category. This will copy the buttons in the current category to MemoPad. Then HotSync to bring those empty buttons to your PC.

Open your .ccf file in ProntoEdit, then locate the remote control in the left pane under Devices. Find the screen that has the actual IR codes (rectangular buttons).

Double click on the button and go to the "action" tab and double click on "[C] Learned". That will bring up a dialog called "Edit IR Code". Copy this by clicking Ctrl-C.

Go into the MemoPad application in PalmDesktop and find the buttons that were exported. Delete the existing hex code and then paste in the new one you just copied using Ctrl-V. Go through each button copying in its hex code. When you're done, HotSync.

Go back into OmniRemote and go to Menu|Advanced|Databases|Import category.

It will find the matching buttons in MemoPad and load their training.

If you are having difficulty importing a category, remember that OmniRemote scans all of MemoPad searching for records containing the current category name. If a previous failed attempt or previously exported category is still buried in MemoPad somewhere OmniRemote may still be trying to load it.

In order to export IR codes all you need to do is select the category that you wish to export and click the "Export category". The codes will end up in MemoPad in hex format.
