Correct. But Doug, how would I know what all info is it dumping in 
the AppInfoBlock or SortInfoBlock ? I mean there is no way for me to 
know by how much do I have to increment my offset unless I know what 
all bytes have been dumped in there. One could simply put in some 
secret messages/easters etc in the above block and it would be just 
too much for my "lil" palm-based PDB reader.
