Michael, I think that he's asking about capturing a handwritten signature, not determining the application creator ID (often referred to as the application signature).
For his question, I think he needs to read <http://oasis.palm.com/dev/kb/samples/1412.cfm>, or any of the myriad other references that can be found by doing a Web or archive search. -- Keith -----Original Message----- From: Michael Glickman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 7:32 PM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: RE: How to capture signature on a palm? I am trying that advice on my own application. I was wrong about "APPL" resource type: it just contains app name. Look for types "code" and "data" - I have couple of those, but don't seem to start with anything like signature. I opened a .prc file with hexdump - still no luck. Any comments ?

If you know, how a signature looks like in PalmOS (I never really worried about that) this is the recipe: 1. DmOpenDatabaseByTypeCreator (type 'appl', creatorID you pressumably know) (or use FindDatabase as far as it is still there :-) + DmOpenDatabase ) 2. Find the resource of type 'APPL' 3. Lock the resource and read it from start 4. Unlock the resource. Hopefully this helped you a bit.
