palm database files

[seanwright]

I have a medical textbook which is a palm data bas efile (.pdb) This book works fine on my pocket pc using isilo. does this mean that all pdb files will work on pocket pc if you have isilo? I have another palm text id really like to use but this one wont display properly even with isilo on my pocket pc. any suggestions?

No. PDB files are a container format for any type of data, and iSilo understands only documents of iSilo and Palm Doc format. While iSilo will attempt to open other types of files as text, this generally means the file looks like garbage (as you found out).
