I'm new to FoxPro. I program in Clipper 5.2x, with basic to
intermediate knowledge (I think!)

I'll try to look for back issues here.

I tried getting brochures from two local suppliers but they
didn't have any ... they do have the software package though.
Funny it will be if I buy the package *before* getting any
brochure. Don't you think ?
How much are they selling FP5 there ?
BTW, Microsoft sponsored a One-Day "Software Developer's Day".
Any ideas why FP5 was not included in the languages presented ?

Thanks for sharing.
