Are you sure it was a T&C issue? Most likely you hit the 4k size limit of 
the Palm memo. This would cause the stripping of the note. The older Palms 
version 3.5 or lower os the OS would have a small memo limit

They are now using CompanionSync for the syncing between Palm and T&C. 
There is a setting to handle the '[]'.

I am a Datebk user now. Did use Agendus for  while but gave up on it due to 
the numerous bugs with it after version 5. These would go unrepaired until 
the next minor version level which I would have to repay to for the honour.

Datbk 6.x has been not problem, even when used with Life Balance from 
Llamagraphics.
