Re: Re: New from Datebook doesn't show all events

	I doubt it is size related (could be, but its not my style) .. I 
tend to over-estimate things like that, and the DB acess in Palm if not 
done 'evilly' generally alloows for 65000 records and so on without even 
thinking about it.

	Its more probably some ordering of records problem related to the 
deleted records or not; ie: Now you've got no deleted records and 
everythign is sorted nice and naturally, and no hidden data in any weird 
ways. If its all fragmented to hell I'm thinking Shadow is getting 
confused somewhere.

	Did problems only occur after a long time without syncing?

# I purged (with datebk6) the DATEBOOKDB and reduced the size from

If everyone would put barbecue sauce on their food, there would be no war.
