PDA Program Log for HanDBase - I have collected a lot of software for my PDA and wanted to create a useful, easy-to-use database of these programs including information like registration numbers, personal comments and developer URLs. I downloaded a few databases written by other users from the DDH software website. Some of the databases had information I wanted for my database, but all would require me to manually enter over 100 applications. I devised a quicker method to collect the bulk of the data for my PDA Software Log. I started with a free Palm OS program called ResourceList2Memo v1.4a by Juergen Schwister (http://home.vr-web.de/~jSwi). This program generates a list of all your PDA programs and exports it to Memo. You can choose the information you want to include in the report such as RAM/ROM, Name, Type, Size & Creator. The program allows you to choose a delimiter; the character or punctuation mark that separates the results in the report. I chose to separate the report information with a comma. After generation of the report, you can go to the Memopad and view the resource list. This list is what I used to generate the initial data for conversion to a HanDBase database. After the next Hotsynch, I opened the resource list generated by Resource2Memo in Notes (I use MS Outlook instead of the Palm Desktop) and copied the list to the clipboard. I made sure that I also copied the heading line from the list, too. I then pasted the list into Wordpad (Start>Accessories>Wordpad). If Reoursce2Memo created two Memo files, I returned to Notes and copied the remaining files to the clipboard and pasted them to the end of the list in Wordpad. I saved the list as a simple .txt file. I started the HanDBase desktop, chose File>Import and browsed for the .txt file I had just created. HanDBase recognized the file as being in .csv (comma separated value) format and created a database of all the programs on my PDA complete with a header row. If you chose another delimiter other than a comma, you can change the .CSV Sperator Symbol in Preferences in the HanDBase desktop to recognize it. To round out the database I added fields like notes, version number, registration code, installed check box etc. I now had customized database of my PDA programs.
