I've downloaded and succesfully compiled and run the TestServiceAPI example.
Based upon it, I've written my own code to create or update a given service
and connection, but I can't get it to work correctly.
It creates and/or modifies apparently well the preferences, but I can't get
the application to dial: the Palm complains that the "telephone number has
invalid characters or number too long". If I tap number, and do any trivial
editing (i.e, I add and remove a blank at the end of the number), I can
connect without trouble.
Here is the part of the code that sets the network settings, from a
structure that's correctly read from a Palm db:
HandleFromString is the same as in the TestServiceAPI sample code, and
MemHandleFreeIfAllocated performs a MemHandleUnlock if the handle is not
NULL.
Err CrearPreferenciasDesdeConex(t_conex *datosConexPtr,
NetworkPreferencesType *networkPrefsPtr,
PhonePrefType *phonePrefsPtr)
{
UInt16 phoneLength;
// Limpiar datos iniciales, liberando los handles que sea necesario
// There are more stuff to set. This is the minimum to illustrate the use.
// Please check the struct for all the members and read the table 54.1 in
the

}

}

0))

Thanks in advance for your help.
