You could write a conduit easily enough if it doesn't have to sync, just overwrite the Palm all the time. > 2. What techiques could be used to pack the data in the records? - Make sure that the strings are not fixed lengths - Use something like the Flags field in the Address Book database, where each bit indicates the existence or absence of one of the following fields - Use the Palm date and time types, not text representations - Don't use integers where bytes will do There has also been mention on the conduit forum of some compression code, so you might want to search the archives there. Sorry, but I can't remember off the top of my head what it was called.
