>>>Hi Dmitry (is that the correct spelling, shouldn’t be Dimitry?),
>>>I designed a Palm app. recently, using CASL. Data is stored in .CSB files that are transferred to the PC via HotSync.
>>>To process the data in VFP I create a cursor having the first field named say cText, and having the size of the records in the CDB and do an APPEND FROM... TYPE SDF. The result is a few records at the top of the cursor with the .CDB header info, and then the data records. I scan the cursor and parse the data records into the data fields The data records have a header portion too, which I discard.
>>>To write the parse code I opened the .CDB in a text editor first (MODIFY FILE in VFP or NOTEPAD)
>>>I don’t know if you can do this with .PDB…
>>>HTH
