The filePro Addendum CD Magazine(?)

[Dennis Malen]

John,

Can't wait until I get it. Whatever you can think of off the top of your 
head will satisfy most of us.

The three volumes are phenomenal. The updates are going to be an invaluable 
tool for us all (most of us!).

Anyone who doesn't have it should get it.
