Bill, Congratulations on taking that important step. You didn't mention your success today at all during the conference.
As always, this group stands ready to assist with your questions.

But I gave it one last chance, figuring that there just might be something to all the hype, and certainly not looking forward to years of skating around the new versions of Windows in every new computer I buy. Well, I must say that I was EXTREMEly impressed. So last night I converted my 4.5 database to 9.0 extreme in my hotel room (which was very nice and clean at the Doubletree and my wife will be glad to hear that I'm not bringing any bedbugs home in my luggage). The conversion was quick and easy even for this old DOS guy, since I've decided to take my time building all the forms and reports I'll need from scratch. The features are just too cool to saddle them with my old structures, formats, etc. I'll just load all the current data from my "production" database when I'm done. Anyway, my decision was partly because of all the input from the friendly AND intelligent (a rare combo) guys and gals I've read about over the years on this list-server but now have seen and heard "real time". I look forward to a lot of dialoguing in this mode and in person in the future, as I'm sure I'll need lots of help along the way. Thanks to all. Bill Stacy -- William Stacy, O.D.
