Hi,

I developed a ".prc" file by MobileVB that prepare some ".txt" files and save them on SD card (64 MB). It run with any problem until ".txt" files would usd 2.6-3 MB on SD card. After that, it couldn't save more ".txt" files and fail. But other type of files such as photos, voice, doc can be saved on SD card.
This error can't be eliminated by deleting ".txt" files on SD card, and it will remain until SD card isn't formatted. After it's formatted, the problem solved temporary and when size of ".txt" files increase to 2.6-3 MB, the problem will appear again.
I don't know how to eliminate this problem.

any help is appreciated,
Sadegh
 
If you're referring to a csv file MobilDB database constructed from a text file, and it showed up on the HANDHELD okay before moving to the card, the problem is with MobilDB.

I'd have to be certain you mean "MobilDB" before firing off; here are some basics:

If you're using MobilDB to move the file to the card, the problem is with MobilDB. I have found all sorts of glitches (and my databases were MUCH smaller) using MobilDB itself to move files to a card. I use a TealMover to move them to a folder on the card called "MblDBArchive" and then move them to the handheld to view. Tealmover will also allow you to move ALL OF THEM at once.

It took FOREVER to move a 70k zip code database to the card using MobilDB itself, and you cannot edit it a database that's on the card. If yours is in the "2MB range" it's no wonder it just "choked." Version 4.1.3 will be updated soon to reflect other improvements, and I hope this is one of them.

I LOVE MobilDB4; it's Handmark's BEST program and I swear by it -- but if that's your program in question, you may be faced with either keeping them on the handheld, choosing another database app or moving them manually to the handheld each time you want to view using a file utility.
 
Dear Paul,
thanks for your reply. I used Moile VB (AppForge) for developing ".prc" files. I don't know about MobileDB. Do you think my problem is with Mobile VB?

thanks,
Sadegh
