Jun-Kiat,
I was able to get the Palm OS 3.0 Expense App working! This gave be a
baseline from which to determine the problem. After verifying that my
project's settings matched the settings from the Expense App and after
blowing away the preferences and deleting the project data folder, I
determined that the problem must have something to do with my source
code. None of these changes stopped the crash.
After a little more sleuthing I determined that the problem was the icon
resources. I had both an ICON resource and a multi-bit icon resource.
Deleting the multi-bit icon stopped the crash but left me with an
application that didn't have a small icon. After deleting the ICON
resource and recreating the multi-bit icons in ResEdit, I finally had
something I could run in the debugger!!
Your comments below were invaluable in helping me determine the cause of
the problem. Thanks!
- Clay
