Hi
> ExgSetDefaultApplication (appCreatorID, exgRegTypeID,
"application/vnd.palm\tapplication/x-pilot");
There is a bad separator (".") between 2 strings.
On the other hand, even if you correct it, the result will be (I guess) the
same. I slightly remember similar experiments in the past and that the
conclusion was negative. But the details are unclear in my mind.
Nevertheless, I made fast experiments using Resco Explorer (allows you to
manipulate associations in any way you want) and redefined the associations
for the types you list + for the pdb, yet it was always "Applications" who
received the beamed prc.
Moreover, I observed also that the prc/pdb associations were restored to the
original values at some instant. So it looks like these associations are
forced by the OS.
Best regards,
Jan Slodicka

What am I missing?
