Like Adriaan says, birthday is a newer database field for the palm databases. It looks like maybe you're dealing with this bug? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110878 > 2.

IIRC, this is another "whoops, lookie there, Palm changed the rules on us again". I believe it did not use to be possible for you to create a multi-day appointment on previous versions of the palm OS. I believe Palm changed this somewhere in version 5. I believe that the only way to handle this from kpilot's perspective is to do what is right for the lowest-common-denominator (i.e. do what won't break previous versions) and break a multi-day event apart. My memory on this one is kind of fuzzy... Is something not working for you with this? -- ,-----------------------------------------------------------------// | Jason 'vanRijn' Kasper :: Numbers 6:22-26 ` | All brontosauruses are thin at one end, much MUCH thicker | in the middle, and then thin again at the far end.
