I'm new to palm development and as a first project I want to create an
app such as a yearbook, etc. that is a static application (maybe it will
allow the user to jot down some notes.)
I will be provided with a file that contains name and contact
information.
How do I go about:
(1) Converting this text file into a something for the palm? Do I need
to write a conversion program to convert it into a palm database (pdb)?
What other formats for storing this information should I think about?
(2) Once I have this database? How do I go about developing with this
populated database? Within Codewarrior, is there a way to add a
database that contains data as part of a project?
(3) How do those applications that allow you to load let's say 1/3 of a
book at a time work? I.e. I've seen apps that allow you to load a
chapter of a book at a time. Do you write the main app which just
loads different databases at runtime?
TIA,
James
