I actually only have one app, which I rebuild with or without a flag 
which allows it to edit the database.  Compiled in Edit mode, it allows me 
to fill the database with mini-chapters of a how-to manual.  Compiled in 
read-only mode, it only allows the user to view those chapters.  Using 
separate creator IDs (as it is currently) allows me to constantly revise 
the program itself without losing the data I've entered.  I had planned on 
setting the program to use the same creator ID (and allow 'automatic' 
deletion) once the program was complete, but am starting to think I may 
have to leave things as they are.  My main problem now is how to obtain 
that database from the Palm system and be able to install that database 
onto other Palm devices.  I'm not sure yet how to do that, but I suspect it 
might be easier to deal with when the database is considered to exist 
separately from the program.  Any ideas?
