The file "db4anomaly.zoo" is available via anonymous ftp from cica (129.79.22.22) in the pub/pc subdirectory.

(Interestingly, though, I'm missing 12 and 13. I'll find them and update the file.) Also, in pub/pc, there are files to fix "anomalies" with reporting and labelling in dBaseIV. The files are: -rwxr-xr-x 1 mr 19712 Jun 8 1989 lbl_anom.arc* -rwxr-xr-x 1 mr 46080 Jun 8 1989 rep_anom.arc* lbl_anom.arc contains fresh, repaired LABEL.GEN and LABEL.COD files. rep_anom.arc contains new REPORT.GEN and REPORT.COD files. These were offically released by Ashton-Tate in April and May of 1989. -- michael regoli mr@cica.indiana.edu regoli@iubacs.bitnet ...rutgers!iuvax!cica!mr
