installing a conduit using condcfg.exe

[e***@ucollege.edu]

I've inherited a project that has lots of pieces involving development
software & languages (mainly C++) I'm unfamilar with. It doesn't help
that the hard drive this was originally on died and the original
developer hadn't backed up (or least documented) everything he should
have. Some minor changes to a Palm application were needed (basically
new field lengths) and I managed to make those changes (in CodeWarrior)
and get the new application onto the Palm. This is a simple data
collection application. However there is supposed to be a conduit that
transfers the records from the Palm back to the PC database. This
conduit was developed in Visual Studio and I managed to make the
corresponding changes there, which created a dll.

I understand this dll has to somehow be registered or installed into
HotSync Manager. In the course of trying to figure this out I
downloaded CDK403 and found a program, condcfg, that was part of the
CDK. I attempted to add the conduit in condcfg. After doing some
research on the web, I filled in the full path to the dll in the
Conduit field and also the Creator ID that corresponds to what the
database on the Palm uses. I left the other fields blank. When I try
to do a HotSync, I get the following error:

-- Could not save the local database. Error Code 180a340
PA SPEED Conduit synchronization failed
HotSync Error: Unknown error. (A340)

Does anyone have suggestions about what I might have done wrong?

Thanks.

That message likely comes from the Conduit itself.
