J- Thanks for the follow-up. The situation is this: 1. User backs up Palm with BackupBuddy or Palm System conduit 2. User hard-resets 3. User HotSync's to restore (done by the Install conduit, whether or not BackupBuddy or the System conduit is the backup conduit). 4. Application's are now not in the categories they were assigned prior to performing step (1) above. To me it *looks* like a bug in the Launcher, but of course I could be wrong ;-) > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, February 11, 2000 12:30 PM > To: Palm Developer Forum > Subject: RE: Application forgetting its Launcher category > > > > > > On a similar note, I wonder if this could be related to a > problem some of my > > users report.
