   Greetings,

       I have been writing applications in the S/87 version of Clipper for
some time now, and I am considering 5.0. I would like: (a) a run down of the
major differences between the two versions, and (b) if you have found the
differences beneficial. Obviously my head has been in the sand concening 5.0
as I know very little about it, any information will be greatly appreciated.
If this has been discussed on this group before please e-mail me directly, or
post to the net if you think your information will be helpful to others also.

                                     Thanx in advance,

                                     James A. Cox
