The answer to your first question is: No, Visual Basic is not C or C++.
The answer to your 'first' (actually second) question is: You can't.
Constructor builds resources only.
The answer to your 'second' (actually third) question is: You use standard
C strings, but the Palm OS String Manager functions instead of the normal C
runtime library.
Regarding your general comments, if you don't at least read completely
through the Tutorial from Palm (included with CW), you won't know enough to
ask meaningful questions and you won't be able to follow most answers. Case
in point, the three answers above are quite accurate but presumably of no
use to you.

P.S. Nice email address.

Subject: Someone please help me
I'm new at parogramming PALM applications and would rather not have to read
all the documentation.
You all don't mind if I just ask you all my questions, right?
I know Micorsoft VB so it should be very easy to write palm applications,
correct?
My first question is: Where do I enter code in the form designer? I can draw
a button on a form but when I click on it the code editor doesn't appear.
My second question is: How do I do strings? I tried saying 'String mystring
= "abcd"' but it doesn't work.
My thrid question is: How come I can't use SQL with my databases? I can't
even see any tables or places to enter querydefs.
