> I understand that a table is a Palm database. Not really. Palm databases are badly named, IMO. They are certainly very different beasts than you might expect from the name. Databases have no metadata at all, and no filtering/querying of the type you will be used to. Records have no definable internal structure - they are just blobs of bytes that can contain anything you like. Different records in the same database will almost certainly be different lengths, and can even have completely different contents (eg a bitmap in one, 3 strings in the next, and so on).
Thinking of them as equivalents to normal database tables can be misleading. > First, can this be done with a Palm database? Yes, but you need to do things differently than you might expect. You need to read the PalmOS docs and/or a good book like the PalmOS Programming Bible. The most important thing to remember when reading those docs/books is that a Palm database is NOT a database - get rid of your preconceptions.
