Are you sure? Cause 0x6000-0x7FFF is a small range, the OS has other numbers
to use for it's custom or internal events. Why would the Palm OS Devs
intentionally use something that could conflict with user apps without
documenting it? If it is documented where?

The problem isn't that Palm OS uses those events. The problem is that if you have a form with its own event loop, custom events that are in the queue will be tossed out and never seen by your program's event handler. The event queues in Palm OS don't stack like in other OSes, so an event not handled by the currently active window's event handler never gets seen by its parent.
