Hi all!

I have a serious problem developing a stable solution using
Palm HotSync 3.1.0 and an inhouse-developed conduit.
The problem seems to only occur when I configure that conduit in a way that
it shows a dialog during the sync operation.

( System: Win2k
  Dialog: Seperate DLL using MFC )

Sync works fine, but after HotSync has completed the Sync with all conduits,
it seems to be in an invalid state, it crashes if you try to access its
dialogs, and if you just push the sync button on the device again,
there's this "Exit the current Hotsync Manager dialog to
proceed with the synchronization" dialog
( which usually only occurs when you're still in some of HotSync's
configuration dialogs but try to sync, but this time, there is no
(visible) dialog ( that goes for the extra conduit dialog I already
mentioned, too ) ), then it crashes.

I know that the Palm guidelines say that you should not show an extra
conduit dialog during sync ( btw: sad for nice progress dialogs ),
but we _must_ show this dialog because the conduit communicates
via network and needs a password entered by the user.

What I would like to know is, do you have similar problems,
is this normal,
is there a way to avoid this strange HotSync behaviour
( and of course still keep showing that extra dialog ) ?

I already figured out that it seems to be no problem to call for example
the conduit conf dialog during sync.
What is this? Can it have something to do with the use of MFC or
an additional dll for the dialog?
Please give me a hint if you can!


Thanks,
Patrick
