I've implemented a fairly simple relational database for an appliation.
One problem with your suggested approach below is that it may be very tricky
to sort the tables. Also, searches and inserts will take longer because they
have to deal with a much larger Palm database.
I used separate Palm databases for each table in the logical database. That
way each table can have its own simple sort routine.
Is there any particular reason why you don't want to create multiple Palm
databases?
