Are there any known issues with using dynamic Form Objects on OS 3.5/4.0? (I'm aware of the create/delete ascending/descending order requirement for FrmNewObject that will crash OS 5 on a regular basis if violated.)
There also is a known form corruption bug on Palm OS 4.0 and earlier where text labels in a form can be corrupted when the form's memory region is reallocated. Search the palm-dev-forum archives for "PrvFixupPointers" to see a bunch of articles on this topic. I think this was mostly fixed in 4.1, and it does not affect 5.0 or later.
This bug also explains why you sometimes will see a FrmAlert with bad labels on the buttons, since that code uses the dynamic form code to create an alert dialog from the alert resource.
