Thanks for replying. Yes this is a pretty big  initial
project, but its what's required.  I did run thru the
Hello World app, so I know the basics.  Basically I
dont know what approach to take here.  Here would be a
flow of the program.... (BTW this app will ONLY be
used in the emulator).

1) User starts Java program
2) URL is generated by Java
3) User presses a button in the Java app that luanches
the palm emulator.  The Palm emulator needs to contain
an app, that when executed, goes directly to URL.

Do you have any suggestions as to how this can be
done?  Maybe I can generate a database in the Java app
that contains the URL, and when the palm app starts it
reads this db and goes directly to the URL.  I'm not
sure though...

Thanks for you help!!
