Think, that you don't have access to globals, when the alarm is triggered. There no restriction accessing a database. Just make all variables local, open your DB (check for error) read the record and decide if you want to go to a visible alarm or not.

Hi All,

Basically what I have is the following:

1. User selects a time.
2. If the current time < selected time, alarm is set for that time today.
3. Otherwise, set the alarm for that time on the following day

When the alarm triggers I need to see if the record for that alarm date has a particular field set. If so, I disregard the alarm, otherwise I try to get the users attention.

I've tried passing in a pointer to the record when setting the alarm but that crashes 
(presumably due to not being available at that time). I've also tried initiliazing the 
database and reading the record when the alarm triggers but that also crashes. Are 
there any other teqniques for achieving this?

Thanks in advance!
