Exactly. Note that you can only send a single database at a time. You have
to disconnect and reconnect for each database.
Your idea of bundling all the databases up into a single database got me
thinking. You could create a self-extracting archive and beam that to the
Launcher on the other device. It wouldn't have to be compressed. This would
be tricky though. The user would still have to know not to use the Launcher
to beam your app. You might want to mark your app as "non-beamable" to
prevent this.
All this is neat, but my recommendation would still be to put everything in
your application database if at all possible.

hi!
ok.. i had to peed my head in here.. *sigh*..
this is really a simple problem, if you design it correctly :))
this is what i would do:
1. provide a menu option WITHIN the app for beaming
2. send the program
3. for each database on device (related to app)
send the database
4. close connection
this is probably the ONLY feasible solution, however, the user would
have to accept all files (and say yes for each one). you could also
put the app into a large binary file and then extract it - but we
just dont have the memory for that, and it is more complicated than
you probably every wanted :)) hehe
just my 2c
cheers.
az.
