Hi Gregory,

Thank you for your message.
I found out that there was a .csdb file in my deployment specification that shouldn't be there and that was overwriting the data file on the tablets. Nothing wrong with CSEntry.
Hence my question, should there be a data file in the deployment specification, but marked to be transferred only on first install, as Arjun suggests, or should I just have its path specified in the .pff file?

Most people won't need to put any data files in the deployment specification. If your program uses a lookup file, e.g., industry/occupation codes, you might include that with your deployment. However, generally with regards to data files, you don't include them in the deployment and instead use the syncdata function (in logic) to update them.

Thanks, Gregory.
