Fix AN Find Hack is a small program for the PalmPilot that corrects a deficiency in the behavior of ActionNames. If you do not have ActionNames installed on your Palm, then move along... there is nothing for you to see here.

Here's the problem:
ActionNames uses the built-in databases for DateBook and ToDo to store its data. So, when you use the Palm's Find dialog to search for info that you have created in ActionNames, the built-in applications will find your information (this is a good thing). However, if you click on the results of a search, it will jump to that item in the built-in app, rather than in ActionNames (this is a bad thing). Fix AN Find Hack corrects this behavior by intercepting the command to jump to an item in the DateBook and diverting it to ActionNames.

Caveats - The current version only works for DateBook items ("Events" in ActionNames), and not for ToDo or Calls. This will be corrected in a later version.
