I went to that site and downloaded the executables. I couldn't use the GUI
version because the link to the VB 5.0 files needed is not valid and I don't
have the DLLs on my system. I used a test palm pilot to see if it would
work but it would seem that I still lost the deallocated data after the
backup process finished. I will run a few more experiments to see what I can
come up with. But thank you for the information. Also I am setting up a
LINUX machine this evening so I can give that platform a try. If you or
anyone else has any suggestions on how to proceed please let me know.
As for contacting Motorola and Palm the up and ups are wanting to avoid that
because it would likely be quite expensive. However this is regarding a
legal matter and I am going to push that option if I can't find any solution
here and on my own by Friday. Thanks again.
