Hi Régis,
My bet is that you're fragmenting memory a lot. PalmOS does a routine to
de-fragment the memory on reset, so the time that it appear freezed is
the time it's using doing the de-fragmentation.
Using a handle *could* (I don't really know) minimize the fragmentation,
but it's just a guess
I´m looking for a function like the TblSetRowSelectable but using COLUMNs
instead ROWs because just one column (with checkboxes) need be selected.
Hello Ricardo,
There's no way on PalmOS API that you can select an ENTIRE column. You must
do that by hand, iterating through all the enabled rows
Maybe you should be using the new serial manager ?

There's no malloc on the PalmOS libs. You must use MemPtrNew or define your
own malloc function.
There are some differences between the ANSI C libraries and the PalmOS
libraries. Take a time to look at the PalmOS Reference Guide and PalmOS
Companion to know these differences.
Basically:
There IS a function in the record adapter (it's not in the documentation
