Hi All,
The field "NextRecordListID" in the "PDB RecordList Header" is described in
the PDB File format specification as
nextRecordListID = A LocalID (DWord); the local offset of the
next list.
I assume it is because if there are more records in the PDB than that can
be accomodated by the 2-byte unsigned short, then they
can be accomodated in the next list and that list's offset is stored
here... Right ?
But while programming in PalmOS we index the record using an unsigned short
( UINT16 ), so we anyway cannot access the record above the limit
of an unsigned short.
Can anyone please explain why is NextRecordListID kept in the structure?
Or is there anyway to access the records with indexes like 75,000 or 80,000
?
waiting eagerly for a response...
Thanks in Advance,
Prashant Gupta
