I don't know of any code that can write a file into a PDB on the
desktop in a way that will make that PDB compatible with the File
Streaming API.  It may exist (and if it does, I'd like to know about
it!), or it may not.  However, you can convert files on the Palm
by calling the File Streaming functions and using them to copy a
file from the SD Card.  This is great if you only want to convert
a small number of files, but not so great if you want users to
be able to convert them.

The program 'par' produces file stream databases on the desktop and comes with source code that lets you do that too from your programs. A version is bundled with CodeWarrior for Palm OS, and you can DL it from http://www.djw.org/product/palm/par/
