I have been using a little app called List which was written by Andrew Low.
I’ve been using this app since 2000, and I have always been VERY, VERY, happy with it.
Recently I noticed that when my list exceeds the viewing screen the arrow down, or up does not work.
I never exceeded it on my T3, or should I say OS5 unit.
I know it worked on my m515, and my NR70v, so I have to assume it’s the T3 / List relationship.
If anyone is using this on a T3 with success, please advise.
Anyway, I figure it does not work on a OS5 unit so can anyone offer me a good alternative.
What I like about the app is its “simple” to use.
It “syncs” when I sync to my desktop, and its “free”.
Now and don’t have a problem paying for an app that offers me the above options.
Simple is good!!!
I rely on this little app as my home inventory list, lists of collectables, ect.
Thanks

What precisely does it do? Do you have an example - a website for the author maybe?

If it is a simple inventry list how about using a spreadsheet in Docs 2 Go that came with your T3?

Well if the screen shows 10 items and you enter a 11th 12th ect. I can’t scroll up or down.

Doc 2 Go does not show or have a full page view.
I have had to scroll the whole page.
The app "List" is just one screen that you can scroll up or down or try to on a T3...
Thanks

I _think_ this is the app you are refering to:

http://www.freewarepalm.com/database/list.shtml

Description:
List: A simple database. Freeware -- full source is available, visit the website!
Update Description:


Updated to support PalmOS5.
List works on all versions of PalmOS.
Beaming support, multi-language support (English, German, Japanese, French, Russian, Danish, Spanish).
Visit the website for non-English versions.
Third party companion programs available on List website -- also check out WListDB, the Windows companion program.
List uses only 23k on your Palm + size of your data.

And I have tested it on my T3 - it works fine.

Hope that helps!

Both Shadow Plan and Bonsai are high end "list" makers but they are shareware and they may be "swattinig a fly with a Cruise Missile". Give them a try anyway. They are interesting apps.
