:-) Folks,
:-) 
:-) I am enclosing a modified copy of SyncAB.pm which includes support for BBDB. It
:-) sync data both ways and updates the BBDB with the records from the AB on
:-) Palm. I've tried it with a few things and it looks fine, but I'd love to hear
:-) from you folks about any problems, suggestions for improvements etc. Please
:-) remember to back up both the BBDB and Palm AB before trying out this stuff.
:-) 
:-) One potential improvement is to store the actual category name instead of the
:-) category id in the BBDB field. I'm working on a fix for this. I also have to
:-) write code to update the AppInfo with any new Categories created in BBDB that
:-) maybe missing from the Palm.
:-) 
:-) Supported BBDB file versions are 2 and 3.
:-) 
:-) For safety's sake, I've called BBDB's file as ".bbdb.sync". You can rename
:-) configure it to use ".bbdb", if you wish. 
:-) 
:-) Enjoy,
:-) 
:-) Dinesh
:-) P.S: SyncAB version 0.96p1 was used as the base version to modify.

Okay, maybe I missed something...what is BBDB?
