Dive LOG software for Palm Tungsten T3 (OS5)?

I am looking for DIVE LOG software for my new Tungsten T3. I saw the earlier
thread that focused mainly on dive planning but I'm looking for a log.

I've tried Sharkpoint but can't get it to work with UK date format. Am I
missing something?

I've tried Dive Buddy and Dive Buddy Pro and they both crash my Palm on
start-up.

I've tried Ken Hancock's Dive Log 0.77 and that freezes when trying to input
a dive start time.

Ruiz Log is looking like the best prospect at the moment but I wondered if
there are any other T3 users out there, or at least Palm OS5 users that have
found decent working dive log software. I have 200 dives logged on a Psion
Revo as a simple flat file database and have saved that as a .CSV file to my
laptop so any software that will allow be to import that data would be a
great bonus.

Thanks,
Tim.

Cheers for that. I'm tying Aqua DiveLog at the moment, alongside Ruiz.
Looking good and the price (£0) is very good value too If I could work
out how to make use of the conduits to import data it would be my winner. I
suspect I'll work it out given enough time. I don't fancy retyping 200 dives
just to keep my new log up to date. So Aqua DL is in the lead at the moment.

I gave DiveMaster from ReefNet a try and was very unimpressed - very old
fashioned, no pick lists, no validation of input data etc. etc. and it costs
too.

Sign up for the following Yahoo group and you can ask questions of a
group that includes other users and the author. We can probably help
you get one of the conduits working there.

Thanks for the tip. I've signed up and had a quick browse through but I need
to find the time to get into the conduit thing more deeply. I'm sure I'll
get it sorted though.

Cheers,
Tim.

Hello,

Maybe this is a good suggestion:

'SharkPoint, digital scuba log' (http://www.dreamdives.org)

I took a look at Sharkpoint and it looked very comprehensive. But I was
immediately put off by its apparent inability to handle dates in European/UK
format. Maybe I missed something and the option is there but I could not
find it. I am not about to relearn how to input dates just to run one piece
of software. Now if it can do dd/mm/yy I'd definitely give it another look..

Did I miss something or is the software too Americanised for its own good?
