You will need to read documentation.

Questions are always welcome.  In general, you should make some effort to
find an answer using the docs before posting.

No.

You'll find that the ui coding is at a lower level on the Palm (especially
compared to vb).  There's more work that needs to be done to put code behind
a ui control (especially the fancier controls).
Are you using CodeWarrior?  If so, there is a tutorial in the directory
"Palm OS Tutorials".  You should work through it to get the basics down.

You will need to learn C

There are third party applications that allow you to use SQL databases on
the Palm (eg - Sybase's UltraLite).  Palm databases do not have anything to
do with SQL.  You find out more when you do the tutorial.

Sorry for some of my blunt answers, but there is a bigger learning curve
than you think.  Good luck.

Brian.
