Mike--you don't want to deal with this any more than I do, so let's procrastinate. I'm just telling you now before I forget any relevant details.
I deleted my three rogue (and corrupted) c-e user dictionaries. PD 1.03 created a new one as expected. I entered three items--one a two-character word, the other two were sentences oof the smallish-mediumish variety. Log off and do other things on the Axim, boot up PD...oops, no time. Later, boot up PD again and only one of my three entries exists (the longest and most recent sentences) and I have three invalid lines. Two of the Invalids are blank, but one is a page of gibberish, mostly hanzi, that looks like a reclaimation of all of my previous flashcards--my name is there a few times, as are gobs of partial or whole vocabulary words.
Deleted it. PD made a new one, and I entered one two-syllable word, just for drill.
Maybe it's the sentences. Maybe PD doesn't like sentences, although when it wants to corrupt something, it doesn't seem to play favorites. Most interesting to me is the gibberish. Where did it find my previous words?
Also, yesterday, without warning, my flashcard file reverted to a month previous. That is, I lost a month's worth of flashcards. Have no idea what I did, but even restoring one of my backups, done on March 6, didn't help, which I consider really weird.
