Hi Jon Many thanks for your suggestion.
I beleive this will register my program with a hardware button in the Prefs screen. When I press this button, the current application will be terminated and mine started. What I really want is for my program to be started, run and for control to return to the previous application when my program terminates. This is exactly what happens at the moment if I select the icon which my program puts on the command bar. This is also how programs such as snapCzalc ( http://www.palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&SID=6A177 EAE-CF18-ADC1-AD5A3562A944D51E&PartnerREF=&prodID=47844 ) work.

It works perfectly! I now wish to have it carry out the same action when a hardware button is pressed. I immagine I have to register the program for the hardware button and then carry-out some action when that button is pressed. Can anyone here tell me what the functions that I need to call are?
