- Clipper was written in Microsoft C. Somewhere around version 5 or 6
- was used. It was not ported to C++. Computer Associates CA VO was
- written in C++, but not that of Microsoft. (Watcom, perhaps).

- There is no easy way, perhaps no way at all to use your Clipper
- libraries in C++. Time to work on translating them. Steve Straley had
- developed a bit of a C-like (later C++) approach to things and had
- started teaching object oriented programming in Clipper a few years
- ago, before the release of VO.

- Good luck!
