HSDesktop
Version 0.0.00 -- beta.
(c) 2010, rMOBILE
www.rmobile.ca

Overview================================================================

HSDesktop is a PC application that allows you to edit your 
HandyShopper lists on your desktop.  The database structures for 
HandyShopper on PalmOS (HS2) and WinMobile (HS3) are identical, so 
HSDesktop should work for the lists from either handheld
version of HandyShopper.

HSDesktop is a standalone application, that does not require
Excel (as does HS2Edit) nor HS2Convert.exe.

HSDesktop will not work on MacOS, unless it can be run under a PC
emulator.

General guidelines======================================================

You can run this application from any folder on your PC.

I would suggest copying some of your HS lists into a temp location, and 
using the "Save as..." command to create new lists from them.  That way, 
if you suspect that something is not working right, you can use 
HandyShopper to check both the old and new versions.

Note that upon first running the application you will be presented with 
a "trial period" message.  After the trial period has expired, you will
need to purchase a registration code from the author by sending a $5US
PayPal payment to 'sales@rmobile.ca'.  Further details can be obtained
by contacting 'support@rmobile.ca'.

Operational notes=======================================================

1. Menu>Options>Preferences allows you to turn on debugging messages. 
This will not be needed unless you are troubleshooting a specific
bug with the developer of HSDesktop.  Usually, there will not be any
embedded debugging codes in the application, so this setting will have
no effect.
2. You can edit a text field by simply starting to type, by double-click, 
or with F2 key.
3. Priority and Category columns have popup selection menus.
4. Tap on button above vertical scroll bar to open store list.  Can also 
be accessed by menu.
5. Columns can be resized.  Drag bar to the right of the column label.
6. Data can be sorted ascending or descending.  Right-click on column 
label.  "Filter" doesn't work yet.
7. Rows can be cut/paste/inserted.  Right click on row label.
