Re: [Ql-Users] Fwd: ProWesS Files
Hi Dilwyn, PWSbasic seem to be the remaining apps to find now. If you mean the Prowess S*Basic interface, that can be found on the Prowess zip file, under the "ext" directory as "pwbasic_rext", so you have it already. I should still have my sources for that. I'll try to find them Wolfgang ___ QL-Users Mailing List
