Re: Palm PDB Database Help

Your structure uses char pointers. You can't do that and load/unload the structure directly into the PDB. You're only saving the address of the Char* in the PDB file which will become invalid as soon as you release the memory they use. If you plan to load/unload the structure directly, try:

Its not perfect, but have your app check the beam bit on startup, set it if its been cleared. It won't prevent them from clearing the bit and immediately beaming it but it would make it more annoying. If the device has Flash ROM (not an expansion card) copy your app into Flash. It will survive
