I have the exact same problem. Shouldn't DB of type DATA be used for app
  data? I am very new. I am working through the Errand sample in the Code
Warrior
  install. Below are the lines that were already written for me. 

#define kCreator                        'ErrD'
#define kDBType                 'DATA'
#define kDBName                 "ListErrD"

   I am using the CW 8 eval for the moment( awaiting a PO Corporate
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@)

   So the Creator ID for the app is STRT. I can see the DB on the device, during
a hotsync
 the backup conduit seems to backup other items. BUT NOT THE ListErrD DB??

It's not a bug it's a feature from the hotsync manager.
I would suggest to replace the type "DATA" with something different.

 From where TO where?!
