PDA Toolbox ProVideo Examples

ProVideo is a series of applications that will help show scripting examples in PDAT 6.0 and up. The goal is to not make a full-blown application showcasing every possible technique, but to show bite-size concepts clearly.

The scripts for each version will contain the comments pertinent to that version. 

Each application has a different Creator ID so all can be installed and run on the same device, but all the databases use the "proV" Creator ID.

All the projects use the ProVideo-DATA.pdb for its primary data. This database is defined as:

  • Creator ID = "proV"
  • Data Type = "DATA"

The database fields:

  • SEEN: Checkbox, Checked if the movie was seen
  • TITL: Text, title of movie
  • RATG: Static Popup, the movie rating
  • YEAR: Numeric, the year the movie was released.
