A lot more than what? They're pretty straighforward to use, and although Palm
databases are weird things, they are very flexible about what you can put in
them (you can have different structures for each record in one database).
I have custom data and structures that I don't believe

Possibly. What structures are you thinking of?
But I don't see where I can actually save a structure

That's what a conduit is for. You do not need to work in the Palm database
format on the PC end - in fact I would strongly recommend you don't.
I guess one way or another I will have to do more work on one of the 2 sides?
In principle, no, but it may depend what you are trying to do.
I want to try and keep the code pretty much the same on both platforms?
Your data access layer should be different on both platforms, but it is
sometimes possible to extract out common business logic. Your user interface
should almost certainly be completely different on any PDA than on a PC.
Perhaps if you explain what your problem is.
