Greetings, happy campers. Pop quiz this fine Monday.
- How many VFP books do you own?
8 or so.
- How many are dead-tree paper and how many ebooks?
All are paper; I have some PDF versions of some.
- What is your most well-worn VFP books? Or most referenced ebook?
Hacker's 6.
- What book do you regret not owning?
Hacker's 9. That it does not exist does not mean the regret does not exist.
- Would you buy VFP books if you could find them?
Possibly Hacker's 9. Others would be decided on a case-by-case basis.
I would like something on multi-user and retrofitting multi-user onto a single-user system.
Also something on a workable grid with column- and row-level validation. (And I do not care if you do not see the need for it. I DO!)
- Preferred format? Paper, PDF, CHM, ePub, HTML, other (which?)
Paper.
I use a sophisticated notes system called putting lots of sticky notes in books. This works great with paper copies but not with electronic copies.
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
