I am trying to find out information about the various third party libraries for Clipper use. I gather that the Tom Rettig one is popular. What kind of functions does Tom make available? I'm specifically looking for menu and windowing generators, or an application interface generator. I guess there are also libraries called SilverComm and IDL Integrated Dev't Library but don't what features they support. Thanks in advance for any info, Al Rovner Tektronix Inc. Vancouver, Wash.

Al,
I have been using a third party library from Artful Applications (I
believe they advertise in DBMS), by Arthur Fuller. His book has a subset of
the functions, w/source, and you can buy a smaller portion of the function
library after buying the book. I have found it to be a helluva bargain for
getting some excellent generic functions to quickly prototype an application.
Give it a shot. The book is "The Dynamics of Clipper" by Arthur
Fuller, ISBN # 1-55623-131-8, publisher Dow Jones-Irwin Software Guides.
