 Hi David,
 DP> Ah, Alan Simpson!  He taught in San Diego when I was first learning
 DP> dBASE. Nice fellow and a good instructor.  He did a book on Lotus
 DP> 1-2-3, too, if I 
 DP> remember correctly.  Quite prolific -- as is Miriam.  Although I
 DP> prefer Miriam's works to Alan's, I still have fond memories of his
 DP> classes. 
 You were in this guy's class???? Yes, he is a good writer. Too bad he
 didn't write anything (that I know of) for FoxPro. He also wrote the
 first Mastering Access book (for V1.0) as well cause I bought it. And
 I believe you're right about a 1-2-3 book because I vaguely remember
 looking at a 1-2-3 language book by him.
 When I was browsing Miriam's Access book, I noticed no more "National
 Widgets" (her fictional company that I would see in all her books).
 She's still one of my favourites!
 Have a good one,
 Abb
