The first SCC instruction book I had (have) after the RS 
III+ brown book is medium blue (half-way between midnight 
blue and light blue) was MSDOS filePro Plus 3.0 copywrite 
1990, quickly followed by filePro 4.0 upgrade pages, 
copywrite 1990, followed by filePro Plus 4.1 upgrade pages, 
copywrite 1991.  My first db Copy was 1.0.0 copywrite 1985 
and fpCopy was 1.0.0 copywrite 1988. I think I got both at 
the same time in 1988 or 1989.
