I view palm os db as follows:

- tables correspond to pdb files.

- rows correspond to records in pdb files.

- palm os does not support segmentation of records into field aka columns.
  You have to do that all by yourself.

- a category is just a set of 4 flags in the record header. One could
  view that as some kind of (virtually) indexed column, with a dynamic enum
  (16 values max) as column type.
