DB View is intended as a developer's tool to view the contents of Palm databases at a low level. I've found a few times when debugging applications that I really need to see what is being stored without relying on the application in test, DB View lets you do exactly that and a few other things too.
Its important to note that no application of this type will be work perfectly for every conceivable file type, DB View its intended to be complicated enough to be useful in a wide range of situations but simple enough to be usable. Let me know if I've got this balance wrong.
Note - This program does not work correctly under PalmOS 5.0 (causes spontaneous soft reset) due to one of the many bugs in that version of the OS. It appears to work alright under 5.2 but has not been tested thoroughly.
