Razzak,
I have to admit that I had no idea what the date was - other than nearly 10
years ago because you said so - and Paul beat me to the answer anyhow.
What I do remember is the relief that R:Base had been rescued and the
delight that resulted. As both a business and a personal user at that time
it was much more of a problem for me having to think about finding an
alternative than for the company that I worked for who already used a number
of different systems.
At that time I knew of you only from the old Harry Bass list and I also
remember thinking that at least R:Base had been bought by somebody who might
know something about it rather than by a company that would amalgamate it
into some other product. Since then I have only had the opportunity to meet
you just the once but that demonstrated your passion for improving our
database and making it work - in all senses of the word - and that "might
know something" turned into "knows pretty much everything".
Thank goodness you took that step and thank you and all RBTI for the
transformation of the fortunes of R:Base and its upward progress over the
last 10 years.
Best wishes for the next 10,
Alastair.

Ooh, nice - I'm sure that I've got duplicated code somewhere in
embedded EEPs and external ones - thanks, Razzak.
Alastair,
Enjoy the latest pre-release updates and watch for the official
"10th Anniversary Edition(s)" of R:BASE 7.6 and Turbo V-8 for
Windows.
Do you know when is the *actual* 10th Anniversary of RBTI?
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
