I have a problem where I can download an executable to my Palm IIIxe
using hotsync.  Although the download seems to go fine, there is no
icon for the program.

If I change the PalmRez Post Linker "Type" setting to "appl" (lower
case) the icon downloads, but I get a hotsync error message: "Fatal
Alert: MemoryMgr.c, Line: 3163, Invalid card #".  If I change the type
setting to "APPL" I do not get the fatal alert message, but I have no
icon, so I cannot execute the program.

I think it might be something wrong in my settings, but I cannot
figure out where.  Can anybody help me?  Please e-mail me in addition
to posting a reply.  Thanks in advance.

Brian

Brian,

Your type must be 'appl' if you want it to function like an application
(i.e., have an icon so you can launch it).  So, you'll need to track down
what's causing the Fatal error and get rid of it.

The error was caused by not handling the sysAppLaunchSyncNotify.  I was
hitting uninitialized global variables after the HotSync load of my data
bases.

The APPL was an attempt to follow CW6 documentation (to resolve the above
item), unfortunately it was a typo.
