Palm Database Programming : The Complete Developer's Guide John Wiley and Sons Your Price: 49.99 Author: Eric Giguere Pages: 356 Pub. Date: October 1999 Palm Pilot's popularity is growing with over one million units sold and the Palm OS dominates the hand-held market. Wired, Feb 20, 1998 states "On its way to becoming the best selling hand-held computer of all time, the 3Com Palm Pilot has spawned an intense, emotional, and fanatical developer following not seen since the glory days of the Mac." As the handheld market grows, the demand for developers who can build applications for these platforms grows with them. Not only will those developers need to learn new skills to program these devices, but they will also be searching for information on how to incorporate database access into their programs. For example, they will need to provide field sales reps with mobile access to the company's database to increase efficiency. This book provides a detailed "how-to" for building database applications for the Palm OS. It uses actual working code samples from a variety of vendors: Oracle, Sybase, and freeware in a step-by-step programming walk through and explanation. No other literature is available for practical database Palm programming guidance and that's why we're publishing this book.
