You can allocate record sizes less than 1k. Usually, you declare a record
struct and do something like this:
DmNewRecord (gxxxxxxDB, &index, sizeof (myRecStruct));
But things get a little more complicated if you have variable field widths
and pack / unpack your data.
Regarding the 3 databases, that's application specific. I've read accounts
where people run out of resources by keeping x databases open (I can't
recall what the limit is). Three seems reasonable to keep open for the life
of your app.
