These are backwards compatibility databases that are created when you upgrade from an older Palm. Here is what works for my T5 and should for you: - Backup your Palm. At least CalendarDB-PDat, and MemosDB-PMem. jpilot, or pilot-xfer -b work fine. - Install some DatebookDB, and MemoDB database. I installed the ones from /usr/share/jpilot/. This *may* overwrite your Calendar, and Memos databases. For me it only overwrites the categories and the records stay intact since there are no records in these files. pilot-xfer -i /usr/share/jpilot/MemosDB pilot-xfer -i /usr/share/jpilot/DatebookDB (if you have pilot-link > 0.12 you can specify two databases on one line and do it with one sync) - Install your CalendarDB-PDat, and MemosDB-PMem that you backed up. pilot-xfer -i CalendarDB-PDat MemosDB-PMem (For pilot-link 0.12 you can specify multiple databases, an older pilot-link will need to be run twice with each database). Thats it. Let us know if it works. Judd
