The syntax for creating a memo in the Palm Desktop is as follows:
set txt to "foo"
tell app "Palm Desktop" to create new memo with {body:txt}
If you declare the variable txt in a Tell app "BBedit" block, you may have
to prefix my before txt in order to get the Palm Desktop to see it.

Always get a second opinion. Don't you think?
