Title: A disappointment
Product review: I'll admit that my expectations were modest for a book which would teach me DBase in a day, but this one still leaves a lot to be desired. The author does cover the basic components of DBase (tables, forms, etc). But the constant litany of "look at DBase's excellent online explanation of this" or "look at DBase's help for instructions on how to do this" wore thin very quickly, and several of the examples did not work as directed. Many times, directions were given to "push x button" or "use y control", with no picture or explanation of where to find said control. This book was clearly targeted for novice DBase users, but I certainly didn't feel I had learned much about using DBase after reading it.
