Hi, sorry for not stating clearly that I already know the commercial application that I want switch On/Off. I have it installed on the Palm.
I used FileZ and found a crID, so hope I can use it.
Yes, you should go ahead and use that crID. That, along with the
database name (NOT the icon name), should be the most unique identifiers
for the application.
Also cardNo and dbID are available in FileZ
The cardNo will, almost always, be 0, and the dbID may change as you
install/reinstall apps, so you can't use those to uniquely idenify the
app. Just use the crID that you already know and it should be fine.
Your only problem would happen if the developer of that app decides to
change the crID in the future, but that usually means that it is a brand
new app, so you would just add support for that additional app as well,
if /when the time comes.
