 Hi Den,

 I popped back into the store and discovered the book had dropped to $7 CDN.
 The front and back covers were bent all out of shape but inside the book
 was as good as any other new book. For $7 what the h*ll. There was only 1.
 It's called "Visual FoxPro 3 Developer's Guide" by Sams and it came with
 a CD. The U.S. price listed on the back was $49.99. Is Mariam still
 using the company "National Widgets". She really did a number on that
 company in her book "Advanced dBase III Plus Programming and Techniques"
 I wonder what she does for a living besides write excellent books.
 Hopefully my next message to you will be me screaming that my FoxPro 5
 finally came.....
 Take Care
 Abb
 BTW, any idea where David is????
... I think ... therefore I am overqualified.
