  yes.. the string is VERY long.. (5-6 pages).. the buttons appear.

  you can use the stylus.. but not the keys.. it happens on ALL 
  devices (including IBM workpads).

  check it out for yourself, download LR or something.. does not
  work. 

  i have this:

program.rcp
---
STRING ID gameInstructionString "\225 How To Play:\n\n\t ....."
---

palmResource.h
---
#define gameInstructionString 5000
---

palmPilot.c (during the event)
---
FrmHelp(gameInstructionString);
---

  thats it.. thats all you should need.. (at least from the example
  code).

az.
