First, use standard Access capability to export the required records and fields as a CSV format or fixed record length file.

Then, write a conduit to read the CSV file from the PC and write it out to the Palm OS device, using the API's that PalmSource provide.

If you potentially have tens of thousands of records, then you will have to create an extra software layer in both the conduit and within the Palm OS program(s) to pack and unpack multiple actual records in each Palm OS 'database' record. But if you have only thousands (or less) of records you don't need this extra software layer.
