- PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE RUNNING THE PROGRAM:
-
- It is necessary to modify your CONFIG.DB file before viewing
- this demo. You must add to the file the following line if it
- does not already exist, or edit it if it does:
-
- MVARSIZ = 24
-
- Once you have done this, quit dBASE and restart so the new parameter
- will take effect.
-
- At the dot prompt type DO DEMO.
-
- If you have any BIN files loaded when dBASE starts, I suggest you unload
- them with a RELEASE MODULE <filename> command.
-
- I have taken every effort to load and release my binary files as I need them,
- but dBASE does have a limit on the number of binary files that can be in
- memory at any one time (16), and the demo may fail to run if you already have
- several loaded when it begins.
-
- Issue a DISPLAY STATUS command to see if you have any binary files loaded.
-
- Since a small but substantial portion of my income is derived from the sale
- of Dbase/Clipper utilities, I have 'protected' these binary routines my
- hardcoding the parameters inside them werever possible.
-
- For this reason, this demo will run a little bit slower than the actual
- version, for I do a lot of loading and unloading during the course of the
- demo to stay under dBASE's 16 binary file load limit.
-
- These routines are a subset of those I have developed for Clipper -- a very
- successful utility of its own. If you would like to see demos of other
- dBASE/Clipper programs I am marketing, send me a floppy in a prepaid mailer.
