PalmoPC is a Satellite Forms extension that provide tables updates from PC hotsync without writing code or conduit. It has two programs:

1) The TXTTOPDB console program who makes packing and compression of the standard TXT files (CSV or fixed-length). In output there is a PALM FILE (.PDB), optional you can AUTOMATICALLY INSTALL ON THE DEVICE (at next hot sync). See details for all features (incremental files, too).

2) An extension for updating tables (based on instruction and tables given to TXTTOPDB). The extension update tables taking all update file you would send to user (ordered by date), up to double key-searching for replacing - modifying / deleting / adding records.

Through COMPRESSION AND PACKING, in no more than a minute you can send a lot of record (you could wait without it one hour and more!). With fixed-record length or with char-separated-value you can make your system synchronization EVEN WITH AN HOST OR AS400 SYSTEM!!!

Another advantage is that even with AN UNCOMPLETED TRANSMISSION, YOU DON'T REACH YOUR APPLICATION TO BLOCK AT START, as you can transfer uncomplete SF table.
