Hi, First of all palm database is not exactly a database. Writing to palm database is like writing a structure to a file using fwrite() function in c.
Going by this logic, U will be having a structure for which u will create a instance and fill the data members. Using DmNewRecord() u will get a memory handle to the new record. U will lock the memory handle and using Dmwrite() u will assign the instance of structure to the memory handle and unlock the memory handle. After that u will use DmReleaseRecord() to release the record u have newly created. Hope this helps...
