Check out the ExgDB routines. You could use the serial manager to stream in
bytes and ExgDBRead to create a Palm database from those bytes. If the
server is sending out the bytes from a .prc or .pdb file, this should result
in the database being "reconstituted" correctly on the Palm.

You shouldn't need to do this. The ExgDBRead routine has provisions for
overwriting existing databases. You should be able to have the new database
replace the old one.
