Hi Paul,
which printf do you use? And where does it print? I've never used printf
in my palm apps. Can't you use the normal API calls?

When a field is initialized by the system, it has no text yet, so the field

If the field hasn't been populated yet (nothing entered or

Best bet is to encapsulate this stuff (SetFieldText) and never mess

I'm trying to set text in a field when a form opens, the problem is that I

You can also open one of your source files **while the debugger is running**
and set break points in places you need.

MemMove is just like memmove. It differs from memcpy in that the source and
destination are allowed to overlap. If they do, the source will not be unchanged
after the move. If they are disjoint, then there is no difference between MemMove and
memcpy: the source will not change.

Actually, its closer to the ISO C library call memmove(). It can be used
anywhere memcpy() would be used, but it handles copying between overlapping
regions of memory safely.

Without looking at the code, the leak is not caused by the allocation
itself - it's caused by not freeing that allocation when you are done with
it...! If you allocate some memory you need to ensure it is freed.

Work-around would be to have a small stub app on the device with the same
creator ID, but a different name (so it didn't get written over when the
real app was copied into main memory).
