Hello Danny!

<Advanced side topic> There has been some debate as to whether the unique
IDs assigned to records by Palm OS are preserved across a hard reset &
recover. The answer may depend on the version of HotSync; I know unique IDs
were not preserved on the original Mac HotSync. If you want to store
references to records in other records (say to build a relational database),
you may want to include your own ID field in each of your records rather
than relying on Palm OS's unique IDs.


I am making an application which uses the Palm OS's unique IDs as
references. I am not going to have a conduit - just  backup my DB during the
hotsync. So the problem you described above  does consider to my app?

Do I need to use my own unique IDs in this case?
