I am creating databases that hold sampled data from a data acquistion system.  The 
user can create one to many databases between HotSyncs.  He may or may not be 
interested in looking at the data in a completed test.  All of the tests will be 
transferred to the PC and deleted from the Palm at the next HotSync.

My problem is how to mark the database to have this happen.  I was following the 
Programmers Recipe for creating, filling and archiving database entries, but this 
means that the record disappears from view as soon as it is archived.  If I skip the 
archive step, then the record is not backed up to the PC during HotSync.

Is there a launch code or something to tell an application that a HotSync has started? 
 Is there some way to mark the database for transfer to the PC without setting the 
archive bit?

Thanks for your continuing patience.
Gary
