"prc" and "pdb" don't necessarily mean a "book" format. They are just
extensions for any kind of Palm resource or Palm database and used by
many programs.

As far as I know Palmreader can only read Books in its own PalmReader
format or the generic Palm-DOC format. Are you sure your 'prc' files
are in one of those formats?

If not, you have to install the application that can deal with them.

Regards,

Guido

Betcha have a mobipocket format file... go looking for Mobipocket reader.
Not a bad utility to have on one's palm (it's one of my 6 or 7 readers that
stay on the palm).
