A CryptoMate database (Crypto-DB.pdb 40k) containing 220 cryptograms is included in the zip file.

On my Visor Deluxe, this program works as long as you use the scroll bar on the side of the display. If you try to use the up and down buttons, it gives a fatal error, something about "object not in form".

I love the puzzles and I've done half of the 220 cryptograms so far, but am having the same problem with the fatal error message, especially when scrolling, something that increased after I upgraded to PalmOS 4. If this can be fixed and if there were additional databases with more puzzles, that would make this just about perfect!

Great idea but the minute you go up or down to view the rest of the puzzle, a fatal error occurs and the palm (515) shuts down.
