	The only thing I can think of is that the database you're
installing doesn't have a name.
	The header of the database has a field with the database's name.
ColdSync uses that, rather than the filename, when dealing with the Palm.
If the name is empty, then ColdSync will (I think) try to delete, then
upload, a database called "".
	'pdbdump' will show you all of this information.

	Or maybe it's something else. Try running ColdSync with "-dmisc:5
-dsync:5", and see if that tells you anything.
