I am not sure that this actually works like you think it does... we
tried this approach several years ago (make PDB, back it up to
desktop, copy/paste the binary into a resource, then
DmCreateDBFromImage it) and it didn't work. It WOULD create the DB,
but not all of the records/resources, etc... I asked palm and they
said that the DBIM format wasn't the same as the backed-up PDB. I
found another way to do what I was trying to do, and haven't touched
it again since. But just a word of warning...
