Just a little sanity check here.  In my pre-SD card implementation if I
need to write info to my database, I do.  I know what the structure of
my records is and DmWrite lets me point to the record I want to update
(- I never need to do any resizing).  I'm thinking I want to maintain
most of my functionality, even if the database resides on an expansion
card.  However, there is no neat little VFSFileDBWrite call that let's
me point to a record in a database in a file, and update that record.
So, basically, if I wanted to update a single bit in a database that
happens to reside on a card, I'd have to be nuts enough to want to
figure out the size of each of the records before the one I'm on (since
all my records are not necessarily the same size), plus the database
header (including record list and all), plus however deep the bit is in
the record I want to update?  Am I missing something or are those pretty
much the facts?
