Hi!

	Question: Does anyone have experience with a product called
		CODEBASE 4 from Sequiter (sp?).  It's a set of DBASE
		compatible functions for C.  

	Question: Experiences with the new FOXPRO, and is there a way
		to compile to an EXE file instead of a FOXPRO File?

	Question: Has anyone seen the new Clipper yet?  I've gotten
		fliers about it, but have yet to see it.

	Question: On any of the above packages, how hard is it to 
		create a lookup window, that is  a window on a database
		file. For Example, in filling in a form on the screen,
		a window pops up, listing all of the customers in another
		database file.  The user can then scroll through the 
		listing, hit Enter to choose one, and the window returns 
		the name to the form, in the appropriate spot. If it is 
		real simple, a sample piece of code that does the job
		would be appreciated.  Doesn't have to be real bulletproof
		I just want to see what's involved, and how much each package
		does for the programmer.

	Question: How fast and well do these packages run on a network?

	I am looking to put together a fairly large scale property 
	management system, and I am still choosing the package to write
	it in.  I am leaning towards CODEBASE because of price, but I'll
	spring for Clipper if someone gives me a reason.

			Please post replies as I am sure others on
			the NET would be interested.
