That reminds me that I wanted to mention a couple of Palm OS 3.0 Manual
errors:

In the Cookbook page 25;

  When the user deletes a record, call DmRemoveRecord to remove all data from
  the record, not DmDeleteRecord to remove the record itself...

  Note: If your application doesn't have an associated conduit, call
  DmDeleteRecord to completely remove the record.

These are backwards of course.

In Part III page 102;

  DmGetResource

  ..The application should call DmReleaseRecord as soon as it finishes...

page 103 as well.

That should be DmReleaseResource.  Heh, cut & paste errors.  But heck for all
I know they call the same code :)
