Ok, Chapura people finally got back to me and helped me resolve this problem. I ma posting the solution in case anyone else runs across this problem. Basically, one needs to create a note in the KeySuite folder with just some text. It doesn't matter what you put in it, anything at all will do, it's just important that there is something in the folder. The conduit then creates the proper content and syncs the data to the palm. After that, you can remove the note and everything will continue to work ok.

So, all my projects are now on the palm. The only downside is that I finally realized how slow my little Vx is for any kind of larger application. It looks like I might have to start looking for a faster handheld at some point, affter all. If I could just find one that looks as good...
