Sorry I took so long to respond, I was on the road and had trouble
sending email.

When this first came up on my T5 I kept getting the (bogus) alerts, so
I cleared them all and changed the

Maintenance Event Definitions to not give any alerts.

Trying to reproduce what happened I decided to:

1. delete the Maintenance Events in question, exit Vehicle Log
2. change the Maintenance Event Definitions to include alerts, exit
Vehicle Log
a. Oil Change: Alert at 365 days or 7500 miles
b. New tires: Alert at 7500 miles (but not any number of days)
3. enter the Maintenance Events from step 1, exit Vehicle Log
a. Oil Change on 17 July 2004 at 195214 miles
b. New Tires on 26 Jan 2005 at 201536 miles
4. after reopening Vehicle Log I no longer get the bogus alerts

I don't know why I can't reproduce the errors (before the alerts screen
listed the alerts as expiring in

1972 whether the date was set to trigger the alert or not).

I suspect that since I redefined the alerts to give no alerts, then
defined them again to have them again,

then re-entered the events whatever was causing the error was cleared
out.

This is a new palm I just got for Christmas and the database came from
my old m125 so I wonder if something

happen during the transfer from the old to the new.

Sorry for the false alarm (pun only half intended).
