Accessing //servername/sharedfolder is basically out of the question (PalmOS does not support this, though you may be able to license 3rd party application code for that). You could of course just open a tcp connection and send the data any way possible (FTP or something done by yourself). > Don't get me wrong here.

For the other: you have to be aware that PalmOS is single-tasking, i.e. while Blazer runs your application will not be running. Through use of some callbacks (notifications) you may be able to execute code while Blazer is running and do all of the above things (#5 depends on whether the device supports that). It definitely will be non-trivial. Have you considered just running Blazer in a simulator? This way you may be able to re-use existing Windows code.
