... so try this...

1. use palm desktop to add a new user, "plucker"
2. change all of your Plucker INIs to use the user "plucker"
3. write a batch file that does something like this...

@ECHO OFF
move C:\palm\plucker\install\*.pdb
c:\palm\USERNAME\CardInst\Slot-MemoryStick\

You will need to change the directoryname "USERNAME" to that of your
username in the Palm Desktop, and you may need to change the folder
"Slot-MemoryStick" to whatever is appropriate for your device, e.g.
"Slot-SD".

4. add the new batch file to the Task Scheduler
