So why not make API functions to access these databases directly? There has to be a way to add PIM enhancement apps to new revs of the OS, they are one of the most useful and popular 3rd party applications out there. As long as there will be someway to get at and work with the data without making our own databases with the exact same data in them.

For queries or edits of existing records, you'll have no choice but to continue directly accessing the databases in PalmOS 5.0, despite the fact that this will almost surely fail in the next OS release after that. -- Peter Epstein -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/ -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
