Yes. Furthermore, it behaves differently depending upon whether the recieving PDA is in the launcher or in some other app when you accept the incoming app. In one instance (when launcher is running, I think) the existing app is deleted (thus deleting all associated data dbs) then the new one is accepted. In the other instance the incoming app overwrites the existing one w/o first causing it to be deleted. >Sorry I have to ask >here because the Palm Knowledge Base appears to be down currently. > Not your fault. -- -Richard M.
