Thanks for the offer, Richard! I am done with the conversion, so I don't think I need the manuals anymore. I hope I have seen the LAST of System V! But if I ever get contacted again with an old system, I'll remember to post on the list to see who has documentation still!

And if you would like, I will even through in a manual for R:Base 5000. I scrapped the manual for 4000 when I upgraded to System V.

Boy I remember that box, the first system that I did that went live was System V. I just finished converting someone's actual working System V app all the way to 10.5 Enterprise! They're done testing and we'll go live in a couple weeks. I couldn't even remember how to bring up Sys V form and report designer, I would've loved to have that manual! They found it hard to contain their excitement over the upgrade -- you mean we can create PDFs? we can print barcodes? we can scan barcodes? we can print to the screen and THEN click an icon to go to a printer??? I'm on a Swedish Death Cleaning binge, and my office was on the list. All my floppies are gone, all my old manuals (never had Sys V here), my Anne Gillian Inside RBase, a Crystal Reports manual for when I toyed around using that as a report writer with RBase. I remember Clout but never used it. Also threw out some C+ manuals, I took a couple courses in that but gave it up -- could never understand the concept of pointers.

Okay, it's a slow day, so I decided to pile together all my RBase merchandise (at least what I can find -- where the heck is my fly swatter???) and take a pic. For some reason inserting a pic doesn't work in my emails to this list, so I'll try attaching it. My two white t-shirts are in pretty bad shape and have been delegated to "wear to the barn only" status. My socks went bye-bye a long time ago, as did my teal sweatshirt. Don't remember there being a back scratcher.

Among the ones that lived a full life and are no longer among us are the back scratcher and the black acrylic coffee mug which was my favorite and eventually developed cracks and had to be mercifully put away. A special mention to the teal sweatshirt that became my all-time most used sweatshirt and eventually developed more holes and tears I can count and yet I keep it around in a “retired” status and, together with the black mug, my two favorite items; I would buy these two items if they were available.
