Has any one used the cheap dBase compiler called dbFast (from dbFast Inc., Issaquah, WA)? Its ads look good (fast compilation, fast programs, small exe files, compatibility, includes a "professional level" editor, etc.) and its price matches the couple of small programming projects I want to use it for. However, I haven't seen any reviews in the industry rags. Has anyone used it? Does it live up to its claims (especially compatibility and small exe files)? Compared to Clipper (at $400US), the $99 price tag is excellent (Can you say "Borland"). It doesn't have to be as good as Clipper, as my applications aren't too intense. But is it even in the same ballpark? Please reply....wherever. Thanks. ...stevec UUCP: {decvax,ihnp4,linus,utzoo,uw-beaver}!utcsri!uthub!stevec ARPA: stevec%hub.toronto.edu@relay.cs.net CSNET: stevec@hub.toronto.edu CDNNET: stevec@hub.toronto.cdn BITNET: stevec@hub.utoronto (may not work from all sites)
