Re: [PilotMgr] "Unable to fully expire modified archive"



Wow, thanks for the quick reply!

Anything look off here to you?

ConnectionDB.pdb          Net Prefs.prc

Possible candidates include the ones with spaces in them (multiple), or
with dots in the filename prior to the suffix (Update 3.5.2.prc).  But
most of them are Palm-supplied files, so you'd think they'd work...

Thanks!

Jeff
