Q: I'm trying to read the "datebook.dat", "address.dat", "todo.dat" or
   "memopad.dat" files created by the HotSync desktop tool, but it
   doesn't work.

A: Those files aren't PDB files, so these modules can't read them. It
   looks as if the HotSync conduits don't store a backup PDB file of
   the database.
	In any case, I don't know what format those files are in.

=item C<$cat-E<gt>{name}>

The name of the category, a string of at most 16 characters.

=item C<$cat-E<gt>{id}>

The category ID, an integer in the range 0-255. Each category has a
unique ID. By convention, 0 is reserved for the "Unfiled" category;
IDs assigned by the Palm are in the range 1-127, and IDs assigned by
the desktop are in the range 128-255.

=item C<$cat-E<gt>{renamed}>

A boolean. This field is true iff the category has been renamed since
the last sync.

=back

C<$lastUniqueID> is (I think) the last category ID that was assigned.
