this probably wouldn't help unless the PC understands the exchange manager. what needs to happen here is that the PDB needs to be "mirrored" piece by piece over a simple byte transmission (ie: ftp). on way to do this (as a hack) is to get the address of the pdb file and copy byte for byte, or, manually generate the .pdb file in a raw stream which is sent to the "receiving" client. :) One way to "manually generate the .pdb file in a raw stream" would be taking the data from Exchange manager, is that right? I use ExgDBWrite with the callback function to write the data to a file stream (as a buffer), then I use YModem to transfer the data to our device (removable hard drive when PC looks at it) For me, I think if we know what is in the database in Palm, then we can generate the .pdb file. Otherwise, I don't know what else I can do except using the exchange manager. Am I missing something? Could you explain it for me, please. > > I need know any manner of send a .PDB file to a Server via Socket. I tryed > > File Streaming API, but this not work, Do you know other manner ? Does he mean that when the data is in a file stream, he can't use fpt to transfer to PC? Thanks a lot. tnn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!
