Ahh, sorry, but editing documents is a whole other matter. The Palm PDB
export support is read-only on the palm (can be viewed by an application
like C-Spot Run). It is possible that Documents To Go (a third-party,
nonfree program) can read/edit RTF's saved by AbiWord, however, there is
no default "rich text" editor comparable to AbiWord that comes with the
Palm platform. Text files can of course be synced to the memo pad, and
I think newer Palms include Documents To Go which might be able to do
what you ask, just export as RTF and use their tools.

Hope this helps!
