[Az-Geocaching] Palm Tungsten E2 and Cachemate

I only download .gpx files from Geocaching.  I also update the records at least 3 times a week with GSAK.  When I run my PQ for updates GSAK shows all the archived caches as "pink" in color and after I look them over I delete them so they are not in my database.  I just ran a test with GCWOCD and downloaded a .gpx file into GSAK then hotsync'd it into the Palm, it came out the same without any description.  I deleted the waypoint both from GSAK and the Palm before I downloaded/hotsync'd it.
Still in the dark,
Mel

  This can also happen when a cache is archived, but still included in your GSAK list. Occasionally you will need to sort your GSAK list by 'last GPX' and weed out the archived caches. 
  Caches that have been archived are not automatically removed from GSAK.

Sounds like you loaded at least one .loc file (vs .gpx) into GSAK.  The LOC files do not have the description, hints or logs in them.

  I have just started paperless caching with a Palm Tungsten E2 and Cachemate.  I export a file from GSAK into the Palm to get the information.  I am having a problem where only some of the caches have the complete information and some have the cache name but minus the information (description etc.) and logs.
Has anyone else had this problem?  Is it a problem with the PDA, Cachmate software or GSAK?  I could use some help.
Thanks in advance,
Mel Hockwitt
