Baxter,

I've heard of PilotMAG. What's your experience been with it?

bitmap movie

2003-08-14 Thread John McDowell
I have a series of bitmaps which when run one after another form a crude
movie. I put them into a loop and I would like the movie to keep running
until the user taps the screen.

What is the best way to break out of the loop?

Hide DB content

2002-10-16 Thread John McDowell

I've written an application that read from a 1400 row Palm database. The
content of the database is in plain text and I would like to prevent users
from reading the db using apps like PDBBrowser. What is the best way to do
this?

Is there a way to block apps like PDBBrowser or will I have to change the db
and app in some way?

repeating button code

2002-10-09 Thread John McDowell

I'm trying to get the Up/Down repeating buttons to scroll a field. So far
I've found examples that scroll tables but none that scrolls a field.

Can someone send me example code or suggest example code for the above?

Thanks in advance,

John McDowell

TxtSetNextChar

2002-09-27 Thread John McDowell

I want to decrypt variable length strings using EncDES.
I'm trying to:
read 8 characters from string s,
write them to another string eStr,
decrypt eStr,
copy/concatenate the decrypted string dStr to a string tStr
read next characters in s, decrypt, etc
keep doing this till I've read all the characters in s
display tStr in a field

Here is some of the code I'm using and it is blowing up (just wrote to a
memory location in the storage heap) on the TxtSetNextChar function. eStr is
not NULL. TxtGetNextChar sets ch to 255. Is there something simple I'm doing
wrong here or am I using the wrong functions?

while (i < l)
{
for (j = 1; j < 8 && i < l; j++)
{
k = TxtGetNextChar(s, i, &ch);
k = TxtSetNextChar (eStr, j, &ch);
++i;
}

err = EncDES(eStr, deskey, dStr, false);

if (i < 8) StrCopy (tStr, dStr);
else StrCat (tStr, dStr);
}

I have a string resource that I would like to add some simple formatting to
with newlines. Is this possible? I'm using "\n" but am getting errors.
