RE: [pilot-db-list] DB 0.3.3 filters

[Chalain Marc<mar...@vo...>]

You told about a feature request not a problem. I'm sorry but i must choose what i will implement. I cannot implement everything. For the 0.3.3 i didn't complete the filter implementation, and when you think something is easy to do, it's not always true. Named a filter wonder a lot of modifications in the main code and in the database structure, and a lot of modifications it's a lot of houres of work.
For the palm-db-tools which add automaticly the "all fileds" view, i'm sorry but i don't support palm-db-tools, it's always Tom but he do that only for you because he doesn't use PalmOS device now. You should wait that some body write a PC application for Pilot-DB.

Salut,
Marc.
