| FAQ |
|
| Printing? |
There is a sperate PC app.
TBReports that will print reports from the GeocachingDB.pdb
file that is sync'ed to the PC.
- Download and install
TBReports (free if you use my reports)
- Download my Reports for GeocachingDB v2 (I have regestered and
compiled these reports for you)
- Open my reports and see your data on screen as it will be
printed on the printer, Then hit the printer icon and the reports will
print.
note:
TBReports uses the files in the
backup area for the current user in the Palm Desktop,
if you have 2 PDA devices on 1 PC this is
how you switch to each PDAs data area for printing. |
|
| Conduit for PC? |
Future versions will include a PC app
to add, delete, edit.. and what ever to the data base file |
| Import Files? |
I have been working with
GPSBable, thier program will be
able to export GeocachingDB.pdb files from other files (such as
geocaching.com's xml), look for it
soon. |

| Version History |
| Note |
On GeocachingDB v3 and up I have dropped the draw pad to
conserve file size.
The file got huge quick for the Palm with the ability to
import outside cache data.
I will continue to support GeocachingDB v2 as a
personal (small scale) cache log.
GeocachingDB v3 will serve as a
personal cachelog as well as a place to store cache info on a larger scale with
more fields. (see Geocaching DB for
details)
if you regestered GeocachingDB v2 and wish to upgrade
Contact
me with your original user details. |
