It will do ANYTHING you need to do approx. 3 times faster than dBase IV and it contains no known bugs.!!!! Futhermore, you may not even need to change your code if you have'nt been using the 'new' Ashton Tate commands. In case you think all this talk about Foxbase+ is just talk, try reading the April (or is it March) issue of Database Forum where George Goley Jr compares the dBase compatible products and you will see why everybody on comp.databases sings the praises of FOX! --Emuleomo O.O. *** Premature use of dBase IV is the root of all evil. ***
