Tim,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion, never been to ehow.com but already
tried dba2csv, and it didn't work.
Funny thing, when I wanted to do it for a 2nd time, I couldn't log in
the dba2csv site.
That conversion was done online, now I'm downloading the app.
Problem is that it highly recommends an upgrade to Palm 6, which is
horrible. Been there and fortunately I was able to come back to v.4
Yesterday I left the machine working on CompanionLink, to Sync Palm 4
with Google Calendar. 30 hours later, my Google Calendar was empty.
Trying for a second time right now.
Oooops - just finished the Sync: again, there's nothing in Google Calendar :-(
And, unfortunately, I don't have any programming experience. Never did
anything with Visual Basic, I didn't even knew it was included in
Excel, and I never used Access (think it's something like the old File
Maker I still have in the power mac).
Shall install dba2csv, and see where it takes me to ...
Fernando.
