Steve, although I cannot share any dual-platform info on Foxbase, on Foxbase
Mac I had too many problems to consider it a worthwhile task to use it for
any serious application. I have found technical support there very poor and
there seem to be still so many bugs in that appliaction that they need to send
out about 500 patches between each x.1 revison level. I had the worst time
ever with that application! Hope you have less hassle/more fun than I did!
