It is okay for multiple databases to have the same creator ID. In most
cases all of your app's databases should have the same creator ID as
the app. What must be unique is the databases' names, and they must be
unique among ALL databases in a Palm OS device. To ensure this, it has
been recommended that you append your app's creator ID to whatever name
you choose to give the databases, e.g. "MainDB-rcSS".
Keep in mind that when you delete an app, all databases having the same
creator ID get deleted at the same time (no, I don't want to get into
all the caveats right now). Also keep in mind that you must register
every creator ID you use.
