Have you ever tried installing applications (prc files) that requires its own databases (pdb) in memory sticks and the clie crashes when you tried to run that application. For example, it hangs or the screen just flickers no end. The only way to stop this is to reset the clie but then you realised that the machine hard-resets when you press just that reset button at the back.

I am using an NX70V and had this problem. As we all know that palms typically do not have that much RAM, but there are applications where the prc files are only about 50kb but the pdb files can span over several Mbs. So I am wondering if its possible to install prc and pdb files of a certain application into the memory stick and run normally? I know that ZLauncher can deal with the prc file but what about the large pdb files?

Try PowerRUN works for OS5. I use PiDirectII which only works for OS4.

I use Megalauncher and I can copy the databases with the main app. It works great.

PiDirect does not function in OS5. Use PowerRun or ZLauncher, those two apps move the app and it's associated databases to and from the card. Additonally the databases are updated in the process. Apps like NetFront or Picsel viewer can only be moved by PowerRun or ZLauncher.:)

ZL really copies all associated pdb files into MS? Is that true?...WOW!

I always thought that it only works for prc files...
