Using SysCreateDataBaseList, I can create a list of all 'appl' DBs on the device. How should I store the user selection? The creator ID or the name? I understand that if I store the name, I can later call DmFindDatabase to find the LocalID and launch it, but what if there were more than one Db with that name? Would storing the LocalID better? Or would it change if there were a hard reset on the device? How does PalmOS store the apps button assignments in its prefs program?
The preference panels just store the creator ID of the application. If you look in Preferences.h, you'll see the structure of the system prefs.
