I am using prc-tools/gcc/pilrc, do all tables have to be tied to a pdb

Tables are just UI controls. Any connection to a Palm OS database is done
by the programmer, and it isn't an innate property of the control. Its
relatively easy to setup a table of all user-drawn cells that you

Speaking of POL. Is there anyway to get a peek at their documentation?
I looked on their website and I don't see anything to download. I wrote my
own mini framework (more to familiarize myself with the OS than for any
other reason) and I would like to move over to theirs if it can
Never mind. I had to register to get it. I found it! Thanks anyway!

The 70's versions of BASIC (and Forth) were designed for small
devices (when you needed to develop programs on the device).
BASIC ran on 8k Altairs and 16k Apple II's, no C compiler
Well it looks like we have a BASIC expert...
Anyone can write a program in a language they are familiar with.
You know C. Other people know Basic much better. Some know
Pascal or Perl, etc better. Some people can write books in Latin.
