PC-FILE is probably the most powerful ( and fast ) program ever to run on an 8088. Just six months ago, I rigged up a client's barcode-reader for lab samples so it would download directly into a PC-FILE database. His 300MHz pentiums could then directly read the .DBF into all that w98 encapsulated homogenized Microsloth bloatware...without spending the price of a new PC for something that would work with Windoze. - John T. -- Arachne V1.5a;alpha, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://home.arachne.cz/ To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
