A workaround would be to use McTransfer which does this for any program/database. It puts a document in a specific VFS directory during hotsync based on the creator ID. It is contained in McFile suite of shareware. See http://www.jade.dti.ne.jp/~imazeki/palm/McFL/index-e.html.

Depends what OS you're using :) If you're using Linux it's easy once you know how; with the Clie switched on and in the cradle you start MS Import then mount the card as a removable filesystem: mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 <directory> (as root) which allows you to browse the MS in <directory> (you have to create < directory, as root, before mounting to it) then copy the file(s) thus: cp *.pdb <directory>/Palm/Programs/Plucker (as root) I use a couple of batch files to automate the plucking, mounting and moving. (With Linux Mandrake 9.0, which I'm currently beta testing, it'll be even easier as the card will be automatically detected and mounted on bootup, so you don't need to create <directory> and don't need the mount command; an icon will appear on your Gnome or KDE desktop and you can drag files into it). With Windows I believe you can use one of Sony's utilities to 'see' the MS (same drill with MS Import) as a drive letter. Then a DOS batch file could do the copy ...
