Conduit DLLs contain Long and Word conversion routines. I believe they are
SwapDWordToMotor, and FlipWord in LinkConverter examples of Conduits.

Subject: Creating PDB files
I need to create a PDB database for a program I am working on and then
transfer it over to the Pilot. When looking through the docs on the PDB
file format (The Pilot Record Database Format) it says that when creating it
on the PC to be carefeul about the difference between the 68000 Motorola
storing as High Byte First and the PC storing Low Byte First - I take this
to mean that numbers need to be saved in Big Endian format instead of Little
Endian format.
Does anyone know of a good way to do this without first converting the
number to a binary string, reversing the string btyes and then converting it
back to a number? I am looking to do this in Visual Basic for easy access
to an Access .mdb file, but any pointers will help :)
Thanks in advance.
Ken
