Going back to the Palm OS philosophy -- files and databases are generally hidden from the user. They just want their data, and the OS wasn't designed to be complicated with the user having to pick a location to save things. Not having a standard dialog was a way to discourage applications from being built in the same old desktop-oriented design. -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/
