I was demoing this on my T E and wanted to continue to demo it on my new T5. the app hotsynced fine I am even able to run it. However when I copy over the .mdb files that were in the user folder from my old T E user folder to the new user folder for my T5 I keep getting a hotsync error and have to rest my device. How can I get the database to sync? and if not how can I get it listed again in the desktop app of it so I can export the data out of the database. When I reinstalled the app the database disappeared from the list when clicking to open a database in the desktop app.

Wish I could help here but I found MobiSystems Database Pro to be a nightmare on my T5. They claim that it is T5 "optimized" but I find that to be more than a bit "optimistic". Creating or importing data from access 2003 to the desktop app results in hotsync crashes everytime. I can create databases from the T5 and sync it to the desktop app but not in reverse :( It's really a fantastic database app that impressed me over the likes of Smartlist but not T5 friendly yet.

I emailed the MobiSystems support staff last week but never got a reply.....hmmmm :mad:

After fiddling around I got the databases imported to the desktop. I realized after I posted they had the same extension as access database files so I just did an import access database thing in the desktop app. I proceeded to hotsync and the databases were on my palm.

I am running into another problem though I hoped would not have been the same on the T5 vs my T E. I have a few forms I use to input data. There is the main form and two forms accessed by pressing a button object on the main form. No matter if its go to form or popup form it asks me if I wish to save the changes entered and I click yes but the changes are not applied to the table etc that the other objects are linked to. I can add info via normal table entry I can even add the info in the form if I click on the ok button generated for the tool bar to save the data entered but not via the save promt when it goes to change forms when I press one of the buttons to change forms. Anyone have any ideas on this one?
