Well, the POSE 3.1H from Handspring has the "Card Option..." from its Setup

It depends entirely on the specification of the application you are

Normally you have to ask the author of the program and/or read her

You'd have to write your own code to do this, but the OS provides the basic

Assuming that you have the space available, you can have larger records than

There is sample code & discussion in the os companion book (by Neal Rhodes)
