I think we have all been pretty patient for several years now. When was the last time there was a Dxbase booth at Dayton where potential customers could see the program in action and existing customers could ask questions in person? Yes, there is good HELP available on this discussion group for existing fans of the program, but it is not the same as it 'used to be' when we could count on stopping by the "booth" in Dayton annually. I talked several of my colleagues into purchasing Dxbase over the years by taking them by the hand to a demo of the program so they could see the features.
