Hi SriPriya,
On the outset, you cannot be running more than one application on the Palm
PDA.
If you want to have some background process which listens to a port, you
would have to incorporate this into your current application itself.

Or in this same application  which is running can i have any method to catch
> the data in the background so that i can retrieve it later from the

Yes, this is possible. Depending on what exactly you are trying to do, you
can keep polling the port  and act on any data that is comming your way (
sotre it into a db? definitely you could)
I hope that this is clear enough
Do get back in case  you need any further help

Thanks
Diwakar
