There's two boxes on this form: Handheld destination and Directory
destination. Remove the Handheld destinations (this was an oversight in my
notes).

Did it also install to the card?

Just the handheld, or the handheld and the card?

What we're trying to achieve with the registry stub is to make the registry
entry we got the magic number from look exactly like it does when you set
something up for installation to the card through the Install Tool. If the
registry key looked different to the stub I provided, make your stub look
like the key (this is all a bit of a weirdness on Palm's part - I can't see
that it'd be all that computationally expensive to check the install folder
without needing the key to be set, but to see what's going on try this: copy
something to the card install folder, then open the install tool and look at
what's installing to the card <nothing>, then install something else to the
card through the install tool and you now have two things on the list. We're
trying to do with the registry stub what the install tool does between those
two states).

Hmm... I haven't tried JPluck ('cos I got this working), but that may be
easier?

Good luck, and I'm happy to keep trying to help if this doesn't work.
