Paradox Table Editor! V1.0 Copyright 1987 Pending Micro-consulting
Pg1 of 6
A contribution would greatly be appreciated, and site contracts are available
for these routines. They are very reasonable priced(enough to get me through
the remainder of school). $30 is the suggested contribution for each particular
system this is used on, and greater than three particular systems is $20 per
system. This system should not(can not) be used in governmental or corporate
sites without this fee. If you wish to discuss the fee I am willing to listen
to any options you may offer.
Please mail to: Pernell J. Dykes
Rt 1 Box 145
Kasson, MN 55944
(612) 645-7552 or (507) 635-5766 Questions after 5pm CDT.
This editor and similar implementations over 400 hours of data entry exper-
ience, so the editor when placed into a user code should work very wellllllll!
Upon this payment will be methods included on a disk to implement in a general
editing routine for all tables, remember the effort here is to make a general
purpose editor to save hours(AND I MEAN HOURS) of programming to get a good
editor for each appliation. Also on the disk will be a programmers dicussion
of the editor, and examples of how used, a Purchase order system, and others.

Key Definitions:
F1 Invokes this help screen
F2 Saves work and returns user to Main Paradox
F3 Will place the user in a search program that will
search any string in any field throughout a database.
Yes, any table passed it can search on any field se-
lected by user. This Editor!'s search is one of its
most powerful features. Any database adminsitrator
knows that entering the record the first time is a
a small part, the remainder is updating the record
with changes over time, so a search that can search
every thing is a godsend.
F4 Duplicates the previous records field in current record
field users cursor is in
