Subject Re: Returning to dBase and need help From Lee Grant <camilee@nospam.comcast.net> Date Wed, 13 May 2020 04:15:32 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Joe, Then welcome back to dBASE. :) You're now getting the best tech support you can get with these newsgroups. The hands here are willing to help, regardless their skill level or the subject. Many of us have, like you, re-engaged with dBASE and are having to go through some of the same learning curve you are.  Some of us are hobby coders trying to get better and maybe get a gig, and many are active professionals using the tools as well as other back end databases. This will be your best connection and sounding board. Once you are through the tutorial and up and running, this is the place to bring your questions and concerns. It's been a blessing. Amen. :)  LOL Lee On 5/12/2020 4:27 PM, Joe LeBlanc wrote: > I've read all the comment and recommendations given in this thread.
