Submitting e-texts
SPUGers are welcome to submit their e-texts to us. You may send your file attachments to our etext coordinator, Daniel.
Please keep your contribution relevant to the Singapore context, and please indicate the name of the program (eg. Doc, MobileDB, etc.) which the etext needs to be viewed. For all other types of e-texts, you may wish to contribute to Memoware.

For help in converting texts to Palm DOC format, please visit Memoware's help section.

You might like to use Word-Doc Converter II to convert your MS Word documents to the Palm DOC format.

For CSV files, here's what you do, CSV is a raw data for Palm Database program like MobileDB, List, JFile, HanDbase etc. You still need a converter like MobileDB Converter for Windows v1.1.1 from MGS or InstallBuddy Converter by BackupBuddy Software. These tools basically allow one to convert and install Excel and CSV files. Normally the output is *.pdb that users can click and install into their palm during HotSync sessions.
