Hi Maxweell,
Thinking about this problem I notice, as we say in Brasil, "The hole in more deep".
Ok, if you turn off your palm and application do
not start validation I can't to ensure the user will press on/off switch. He can press
hotsynch press.
I have a main application and another to send data by modem/ftp. If I start data send
program with an incomplete record I'll send
corrupted data to server.
My solution:
I have a parameters table in my application and inserted two fields "what is
processing" and "record position"
When my communication program starts it check these fields and show "You have a
incomplete transaction in main application, finish
it and try again".
When my main program starts it checks these fields and show correct form positioning
it in correct record.
Cheers
Roberto Amorim
Sorry my bad english
