You should remove GoBinder. It's still sold but completely unsupported. It's a shame as it's a good program but it's buggy and those bugs will never be fixed.

Hi all, I an using M.S. Ink Flash card program and trying to find out if the card deck can be exported? I would like to put them on my Palm Pre for Study when tablet is not with me. I figure if I can get the cards into a jpeg format, I can post them on an imaging hosting site and use a flashcard program on my Pre that can pull the URL's of the images.

Any thoughts?
