Hi there, >I am able to create the pdb file in the desktop platform, when I installed >the application and the pdb file, I able to view the records of the pdb just >once. You mean you view it on the Palm? How do you view the records? And the whole pbd disappears so you can't view it again? If you want to view it, then you have to install it again?
>But the regarding about the Data Manager APIs which I have used earlier, >do I replace them with File stream API (like FileOpen) instead? Or what >should I do to able to read and write the pdb file instead of putting into >the storage memory. No, you don't need to use File stream API. I only use File stream API when I need a big buffer ... The PDB file that you create on PC and you install it in the Palm is the database on the Palm. PRC file is the PC format of the application on the Palm (resource database) PDB file is the PC format of the database on the Palm (record databse) You can use the data manager to access the database (or the pdb file that you install to the Palm). You create the pdb, so you know the dbname, creatorID, dbtype, you can open, read, write, delete records and close it at the end. On the emulator, "Export database" menu allows you to put the database on the PC (will show up as pbd file) that you can view on the PC to see what you do with it. tnn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
