Any help as how to download the tutorial to my tutorial folder would be very muvh appreciated........Bob Bob -- There's a link. Click it. Your browser will normally automatically download because it's set in the web page that way. (See image 1 ...) When it is done (and it won't take long), you will see something (based on which browser you use -- the image here is from Netscape's Firefox), there's a folder button that lets you open the folder the file was downloaded to. If you haven't dealt with downloads much (although if you use the dUFLP, you HAVE downloaded ...), the location the .zip file is in may be something odd, buried in the Users folder structure. You can move this to another location. In Windows File Explorer you can copy/cut and paste to another folder. But that.s the .zip file, which you will need to "unzip". Windows has built into it the ability to unpack a .zip file. If you double click "dBASETutorial.zip", it will open, and in the toolbar of the Windows File Explorer you will see an "Extract all" button. Click it. This will attempt to give you a default file location, change that to where you want it to extract the files to (like, for example: C:\dBASETutorial), and then click "Extract". That should get you to the point the files are downloaded and in a folder you can work with. You do NOT need the HTML zip file, I wouldn't worry about it ... just use the tutorial from the web pages online.
