	Actually, the demo version limits are:

200 lines of processing per table
100 records in *clerk/*report (the record
number might have been recently increased to
200 - Ken is out running an errand at the moment,
so I can't ask him.) I just downloaded the Windows
demo version and checked the record number limit.
Dexpand allows me to add 400 more records, but
dclerk does not allow me to get to record numbers
above 100.

There is still a single-user Linux version available
at: <http://linux.tucows.com/preview/248849.html>
It has no processing or record number restrictions.

I also have a link on my website for demo versions
at <http://www.hvcomputer.com/shopping/orderform.shtml>
then scroll down to "filePro" and click on "sample".
This will open a window and allow you to download
demo versions of filepro from fP Tech.
