One option is to tag the databases for backup and then look for
them in the desktop backup folder after the hotsync has completed
and use a pdb2csv converter to produce files that desktop apps
can import. It's an alternative, although the last time this was
discussed there were a few people pointing out that conduits
have become _much_ easier to write (conduits also don't require
knowing anything about the PDB internal structures - the conduit
API does that for you).

====================
I think the solution your looking for is to create a conduit for your
app
that interprets the data in your palm databases into whatever format
you
like on your pc. Check out the samples in the latest conduit SDK. -

Dear Chris and Jim,
That 'conduit' facility seems an excellent choice to investigate and
evaluate. From what you say - that sounds like what I need to be doing.
I also will checkout the pdb2csv opportunity.
Many thanks for the timely and kind assistance!
