Hi Den,

DB> Codebook first as a basis for comparison. You may also wish to know
DB> Miriam Liskins' book on 3.0x was just released, maybe the best, saved
DB> for last.
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????
