I have been using VFP since 1997 and already started learning SQL Server, lest 
the vultures (ie obsolescense) make a feast out of me. I started out by reading 
a book by Miriam Liskin, about a fisherman who wrote a program using DBase III 
Plus. Funny if you think of it, for a fisherman to write a computer program, 
but very useful at the time. It was an eye opener. My first program, written in 
DBase III Plus, was accounting for port expenses for a shipping company I was 
working for.

Well, it is 8:00 PM here, so I'll shut my systems down for the day, a very 
torrid summer day here in the Southern Hemisphere.

Bye for now
Rafael Copquin

  You too, Rafael?  I started back then too.  I had a client with a FB 1.0 app 
and I had to learn the language from a DBase manual.  Some day I am planning to 
learn SQL and OOP if I get the chance <g>.
