YET another year, YET another Borland conference (Anaheim in May, 2002), another year
without seeing most of my old dBASE friends, unfortunately. Alas, my thirst for a conference for dBASE folk
continues unquenched....
For all the latest and greatest dBASE stuff, check out the dBASE
Incorporated web site. The best dBASE support in the world is
available through the newsgroups hosted there.
