Update 0.93a — listdb.exe bug fix

A few people have been having trouble extracting .pdb files using listdb.exe. Some of these problems are due to a bug (now fixed) when the database has more than 127 records in it. Please give the new version (0.93a) a try.There is also a known limitation on the amount of text that you can enter in the note field when using the Pilot to enter the data. The maximum size of the note field is 4096 bytes, and this is supported by the listdb.exe program. However, due to some limitation in the PalmOS, text entry is limited to the equivalent of about 14 lines. I am working on a solution to this problem, but it doesn’t look like it will easy. If anyone has a better understanding of PalmOS and entering text, I would appreciate any helpful hints. Until I figure out a solution, if you require large note fields you can edit them as .csv files and use listdb.exe to convert them to .pdb files.

Also some minor updates to the web pages here, a little better documentation and the .jpg files were replaced with .gif files for faster load times.

Version 0.93

This release addresses a few bugs, the most notable being the “find” bug on PalmIII units that caused a FATAL EXCEPTION in some cases. I have only been able to test this under the debug ROM from 3com as I do not have direct access to a PalmIII device (yet).The listdb.exe program has also been updated with some minor bug fixes as well. I have also provided a BETA version of the listdb.exe program for Linux.

New Version 0.92

This version of List is NOT COMPATIBLE with the previous version. You must delete the List application and all databases from your Pilot (use the built-in Memory application). Also remember to delete any list databases that exist in your Backup directory, otherwise when you HotSync the Backup conduit will re-install them.To convert an old format database to the new format use the listdb.exe program:
Example:

listdb -x mylist.pdb mylist.csv
listdb -c mylist.pdb mylist.csv
Then install the resulting mylist.pdb file.

In view mode you can now use the hardware page up/down keys to move between records in the current category. This is the same type of behaviour as MemoPad.
