I'm trying to read the SMS message database on the Treo 650.

Here's a snippet of what i'm doing.  The rest of the conduit is mostly
based on the Sample Conduit from the markspace website.

unsigned char database_id = 0;
		
if (SyncOpenDB("Messages Database", DEFAULT_CARD_NUM, database_id,
eDbRead) == 0)
{
	CRawRecordInfo raw_record;
	raw_record.m_FileHandle = database_id;
	raw_record.m_TotalBytes = database_info.dwMaxRecSize;
	raw_record.m_pBytes = (BYTE *) malloc(raw_record.m_TotalBytes);
	raw_record.m_RecIndex = 0;
	if (raw_record.m_pBytes == NULL)
		goto close_database;
			
	while (SyncReadNextModifiedRec(raw_record) == 0)
	{
		// Lots of stuff done here
	}
			
close_database:
	if (raw_record.m_pBytes != NULL)
		free(raw_record.m_pBytes);
	SyncResetSyncFlags(database_id);
	SyncCloseDB(database_id);
}
		
::SyncUnRegisterConduit(conduitHandle);
unloadBridge();

Any clues?
