How to get Palm Desktop (v 2.6, OS9) to create new event?

Hi..

(so that later message will make sense... gah. The problem of multiple
personalities in Eudora.)

having looked at the Palm Desktop (2.6, on OS9) dictionary, I thought the
way to create a new appointment would be

tell application "Palm Desktop"
create new event with property {title:"Test event",
date:"11/11/02", start time:"0930", duration:30}
end tell

Should create an event called "Test event" on 11 November at 0930 lasting
30 minutes. Instead it creates a new untitled event at the hour immediately
after the one I'm presently in, today (10/11/02 in European format).

It also gives the Event Log of
--> {class:+class SAPP;, id:415, instance:-1}
Instance -1 seems to mean it's non-recurring (fine). It would be nice to
know the rest means, and most of all how I *can* instruct it to do what I
want, not what it wants. Then I could create new calendar events while
reading my email, which often has invites, events etc, which I don't want
to jump back and forth between apps to add.

Searches on Google (looking for Palm + Applescript and for Claris +
Applescript) turns up nada. Can it really be the case that nobody has tried
to do this? Or is it a Known Bug?

Charles
