I haven't run the PRC2OVL tool recently - how do you specify the
target locale (language & country)? It will need this to set the DB
header name (and info in the 'ovly' resource it adds) correctly.

I'm assuming you're using a 3.5 ROM image, since overlay support
wasn't added to Palm OS until then.

Where are you getting the language and country values?

Nope, that should be it. If you'd like, you can send me the
app/overlay, and I'll see if I can figure out what's up.
