	My brother-in-law, who doesn't have access to the net, would like
to run dBaseIII on his PC (clone) at work, and call in from home via
modem and run problems on it.  He has tried using ProComm+ in host mode,
only to find that dBase ignores the serial line and ProComm entirely, and
does reads and writes to the BIOS or the machine directly.
	His question is:  Is there software that will allow him to use
dBaseIII (or FoxBase) remotely?  If so, could you please give me some
pointers I can pass on to him.
	I do not read either of these groups regularly, so please answer
directly, and I will summarize to the net if there are a lot of
responses.
