Paradox sample dbs 4

[gheffron1]

Corel WP 2002 suite came OEM with the computer and Windows XP. But no sample dbs. Corel doesn't know? how to help or supply them. Since I haven't used Paradox since 1989 or so, I need help - I'd rather sell a Paradox application than an Access one, just because of cost and ease.
And I can't find any books about P. of any edition except 1993's Wolf and Wheeler (in the library).
Thanks!

Gheffron,

Ihad a similar problem with lack of maunuals. I easily obtained back copies from the Internet, all at very reasonable prices. Delivery was good too. My only reservation is that discs that came with the books had delivered forms on them that would only work on early versions of P.

I cannot remember who the book dealer was but if you look in the forum archives you will find the relevant information.

regards,

Paul

Most of Mike Prestwood's Paradox 9 Power Programming is available on-line at:

FWIW, I've had excellent luck finding older books through

http://abebooks.com,

a portal of used book stores. Useful for technical and non-technical titles. You can sometimes find software, too.

Hope this helps...
