DBase File I/O Rountines in FP

[John Esak]

The code you're looking for was the "exmple" code for the I/O functions in
the new features spiral insert booklet. Although, I would run that code
carefully, I remember coping it verbatim and finding lots of problems with
it. The changes were not difficult, but it did not run as written. I have
one of those booklets, but it is in NJ, I am in PA. I'm sure someone else
must have one available, but what you would want is the electronic version
anyway I'm sure.
