The price seems to keep going up here. Karen I will trade you my R:Base stapler and my MICRORIM ceramic coffee cup coaster. I have both on my desk and have used them for over 20 years. Priceless Thom On 1/21/2021 5:04 PM, A. Razzak Memon wrote: If signed by Bill Downall and David

I haven't looked at it in years.  It appears to be in good shape, a few pages have my notes on them.  I'd be willing to part with mine, but it's 5 lbs so it would cost a bit to ship it and I'd have to find a box. Karen -Original Message- From: Thom To: rbase-l@googlegroups.com

Bill, Yes indeed sir I am he. As long as me, Jim Schmidt, and Damon Kauffman are still around the SWORBUGS are still kicking it RBase style. We have been socially distanced for about 10 years or so now but bound by our history of crazyness and fanaticism for our platform. Bill I remember

Re: [RBASE-L] - SQL book

I was a co-author of those books, with David M. Blocker. I'm afraid they are beyond recovery. The last versions were written in Ami Pro, WordStar, or maybe even the Describe word processor on OS/2, and self-published by David. Even if we could find the source files, I'm not sure we could read

Decades ago there were two SQL books/manuals specific to R:Base written by some top developer(s) that was available to the R:Base Community.  I believe the author's name was Dave.  I can't remember his last name but I do remember his face and I think there was a contributor to the manual whose
