The setting in PalmRez is used to specify the name of the database containing your
application. This is a resource database with code resources and other resources for
your forms and such.
The DmCreateDatabase API also needs a database name, and it should be different,
since you clearly don't want to create a database from within your application which
overwrites the application itself. The rule in PalmOS is that no two databases on the
same device (or is it on the same card?) can have the same name. For example, memo pad
uses something like "MemoPad" for the application database and "MemoDB" for the data
database (that contains all your memos).
