Regarding the conversion on the PC, I had thought about it, but wanted the whole process to be as streamlined as possible (people didn't seem to like having to use another program, like wordpad, to do the conversion). Converting on the PPC has memory problems. But as I said, the new version of XMLTV Grabber should allow output of a compatible encoding (windows-1252?) so there ahould be no need to convert.

So my plan is...

* Grab the xml file to Pocket_PC My Documents as usual
* ActiveSync transfers it to the device's My Documents
* My viewer picks it up and imports it to the database
* After a successful import it would delete the xml file

That would free up space in the device's My Documents folder.

The headers have changed, and are no longer blurry.

Adding selected programmes as appointments was something I'd thought of. If it'll be useful I can add it.
