Over the past year I have received mailing after mailing trying to get me to go to conferences on Paradox. These mailings have so far quickly found their way to the old circular file. However, after I work more and more with Paradox, I am now considering attending a conference. I was just mailed some advertisement for the 1991 Paradox World Tour. I am considering to register, and would like to know if it is worth my time and effort. Is it worth the price tag of $395? Has anybody out there attended these conferences in the past? Thanks. -- Alexander Breen abreen@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu Agricultural Engineering Department

Both are excellent speakers and top notch Paradox programmers. The PAL code they offer for free is probably worth the price of the session. Most of my applications are made up of code they graciously provide for free. They both frequently answer my Paradox questions on Compuserve. They both have been providing training seperately for several years. This is the first year that they have teamed up together, I believe, and I bet it is one heck of a show. -- Bill Yock, Weeg Computing Center, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242 byock@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu
