[pilot-db-list] Alternative to pilot-db-tools?

[Elijah <des...@so...>]

I've been trying to get rid of that ^M hanging around on the tools but
dos2unix doesn't seem to work .. or maybe I'm doing it wrong? .. hmm

Anyways, is there an alternative to pilot-db-tools? preferably in X
(gui) for linux. 

Thanks, 
Elijah

	If you describe precisely your needs, I can try to create
something with you for pilot-db. Let me know.

	DB is one of the most flexible databases available for the palm 
pilot...at least in my (unbiased) opinion :) .  Running totals can all be 
done using scripts.  Mileage, hours materials, etc, should all be do-able 
with a proper db schema.

[pilot-db-list] Work Days

[Mark B. <mbl...@ar...>]

Hello,

Can I get WorkDays to run with PilotDB?

Alternatively:

Is there another DB which will run on PilotDB for keeping track of jobs, 
hours, materials, mileage, etc.,; with running totals of expenses and 
income?, suitable a for a self-employed handyman like myself who has 
lots of small jobs with various parameters?

Would anyone like to help me develop such a DB?

I just checked the "...about" information in 1.1.0b2. It still says

[pilot-db-list] 1.1.0b Fatal error with address plugin

[Guido P. <gui...@gm...>]

Just to let you know about a workaround:

The address book plugin worked fine with the older versions. With 1.1.0b 
  my Palm did a reset every time I tried to open the addressdb. I 
deinstalled all plugins (I had installed >all< plugins that came with 
1.1.0b) and only reinstalled db-db2, db-memoexport, db-addressdb and 
db-informations.

No fatal errors yet.

[pilot-db-list] Sorting a db crashes

[Benjamin S. <ben...@if...>]

Hi all,

When I sort a DB by tapping on a column header, I often get a
crash/reset. When I reopen the DB after the crash, the list has been
sorted!

More info:
I'm using very small databases (5-10 fields, 5-10 records).
I'm using Pilot-DB 1.0.3
I can't quote the error message here as I can't reproduce the error
right now.

Does anybody have the problem? Any idea what's wrong?

Ben

It could be related to memory problems. I have < 1MB free memory (why isn't=

[pilot-db-list] Fatal Error

[Ken M. <ken...@yi...>]

I have been using Pilot-db (version 1.0.1) for about a year now.  I just
recently downloaded some MobileDB databases.  I came this site and got the
plug-in for MobileDB.  When I try to open a database that was designed for
MobileDB, I get a fatal error of Fata Exception and that I must reset my
Visor.  I tried upgrading to version 1.0.3 of Pilot-db, but I still get the
same results.  Did I do something wrong?  What can I do to fix this?

Thank you for your help,
Ken

[pilot-db-list] RE: View when editing new record in db1.1b2

[Benjamin S. <ben...@if...>]

Hi Mike,

From my understanding, there isn't ONE edit view. The "Use this view to
edit a record" check box will specify that if you create a record while
in this view, it will use this view (i.e. the field definition and
order) to enter data, instead of showing you a list of all the fields in
their default order.
For example:
- for records of type T1, you only need fields F1, F3, F5, and F4, and
you show them in this order.
- you define a view called T1, in which you show those four fields and
only them, in this order.
- when you want to create/edit a T1 record, you switch to the T1 view,
and create/edit your record. You will only see those four fields, in the
order defined.
- in the record creation/edition form, you still have an "All" button in
the upper-right corner that gives you the possibility to toggle between
the T1 and the "All fields" views.

I hope this is all corect, makes sense, and helps.

Ben

Subject: [pilot-db-list] View when editing new record in db1.1b2

The view used when a new record is created is the "all fields" view.
Shouldn't it use the view used for editing records? I set up the edit
view to not include linked and calculated fields, as they just get in
the way.  That's equally true on a new record as on one being edited.

[pilot-db-list] View when editing new record in db1.1b2

[Mike M. <mw...@mi...>]

The view used when a new record is created is the "all fields"
view. Shouldn't it use the view used for editing records? I set up the
edit view to not include linked and calculated fields, as they just
get in the way.  That's equally true on a new record as on one being
edited.

	Thanx,

Re: [pilot-db-list] DB 1.1 Beta 2

[Hal D. <hal...@ac...>]

OK, I've got the Sony version of the Simulator running on one of 
my Windoze boxes.  Much easier to get going than POSE was since 
there was no messy acquiring of ROM images.  Just unzip and run.

If you want to test any alpha level code let me know.  I don't 
have a build environment so I'd have to prevail on you to get a 
PRC image to me.

[pilot-db-list] Filtering on boolean field

[Emmanuel S. <se...@ac...>]

I've looked for the answer in the documentation but couldn't find it.

Is it possible to filter the entries depending on the value of
a boolean field? If so, what do you have to put in the search
field?

Since I've got a shiny new CLIE NX-60 (PalmOS 5) I'd love to see 
Hi-Res support.  The tiny fonts are surprisingly readable and 
greatly help with getting more info on the screen.  And of 
course, I'd like to see High Res+ support (support for the extra 
screen area that the 320x480 screen gives you).

From a miniscule amount of reading it appears that Palm came out
with a "High Density" API which they use in the Tungsten T. So
for their PalmOS 5 devices, Sony has dropped their own High Res
library and use the High Density API.

So the bad news is to support all Sony high res devices you'll 
have to deal with two different APIs.  The semi-good news is 
that using the High Density API should give you both Sony NX 
(and later NZ) series support as well as Palm Tungsten.

I've got both Windoze and Linux machines.  I just started pulling
down stuff to make a simulator environment.  I'll drop a line
back if/when I get it working.  At that point I'd be happy to
help with alpha code.  I'd like to be able to help with the
coding but I've never managed to find the time to put together a
build environment.  Real Work (tm) chews up too much of my time.

Very cool!  I just tested it and it works great!  Thanks so much!

[pilot-db-list] Bug(?) in db1.1b2

[Mike M. <mw...@mi...>]

This is probably old behavior, but it's very annoying.

When there is a view selected for editing a record, viewing a record
goes to that view in the list mode as well. Since my database has many
calculated fielsd (now working - thanks, Scott!) that aren't in the
edit view, this is annoying.

Actually, I think we need four distinguished views. There's one for
the list view, one for viewing a record, one for editing a record -
which isn't the same as the one for viewing a record, and one for
selecting a record being linked to, which currently just uses the "all
fields" record with the default widths.

I plan on making my databases available in the near future. That may
make these points clearer.

[pilot-db-list] DB 1.1 Beta 2

[Scott W. <swa...@my...>]

	Thanks for the feedback on db 1.1 Beta 1.  I have made a 
significant number of bug fixes, and minor enhancements, and have released 
the second beta version on sourceforge.  Please let me know what your 
experience is.



	Sony Clie users, as you have noticed, HiRes support no longer 
exists in DB 1.1.  I am trying to learn more as to how difficult it will 
be to put Clie support back into 1.1.  If you have strong feelings either 
way about this, I would appreciate a letter.  Also, since I do all my 
development on a linux box, my access to a sony emulator is very 
restricted, so let me know if you would be willing to test out alpha 
versions).

[pilot-db-list] Feature request: allow references to linked fields in scripts

[Michael G. <ma...@th...>]

Currently, scripts cannot access the values of link fields and linked
fields.  When used in arithmetic expressions, the script dialog refuses
the references, saying something like:

   "bad arguments for *"

When a link or linked field is cast to int, the value returned is some
large number, presumably a pointer of some sort.

I think this would be a very useful feature to add.
