The Palm OS doesn't much care what you put in a database record. As far as
the OS is concerned, a database record is just a series of bytes. Your app
has to interpret those bytes in whatever way you want it to. Normally, you
use a struct to define the fields in your database records.
See http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/docs/devguide/ch06.htm#TopOfPage for Neil
Rhodes' excellent description of how to use a database in your program.
