Hi, folks --
Five or so years since retiring, and all "just-in-case" scenarios fully played out, so... The last chapter in my Fox story is imminent. My large cache of FoxPro books is hitting the recycle bin.
Long live(d) the Fox!
Cheers,
Ken

Great news! Hope you still stick around here for the laughs!

Happy Retirement Ken! If you are really throwing them out, let me know if you are willing to ship them to me (I'll pay for shipping and for your trouble). We have a couple of foxpro projects that I think will never die and I have a few people on my team I would give them to. You can email me directly if you'd like. -Jeff

I opened the big box-o'-books. What a weird selection was in there! About half of it was the manuals from M$. Another big chunk were VFP3! (Including YAG's Codebook). No Hackers Guide (treasured, of course) or other more general books -- anywhere. Maybe I have another box somewhere....
Here are some with potential use to someone:
-- Internet applications with visual FoxPro 6 -- 1001 things you wanted to know about visual FoxPro -- WebRAD Building database applications on the Web -- Client server applications with visual FoxPro and SQL server -- Using VFP 5 (Michael Antonovich) -- Using VFP 6 (Manachem Bazian)
I think those last two were the books I gave to students at my VFP classes.

I'd be interested in any of the beginner / general visual FoxPro stuff including the vfp3. My experience has been the vfp3 stuff assumes no FoxPro experience and the vfp6 stuff assumes some experience. The internet applications and SQL stuff I am less interested in but I'll take it if it doesn't run shipping to high. I probably should have asked where are as well. Might be expensive to shop across the pond! I'm in the US, Birmingham, AL.

I bet I could fit the main ones in a couple of Post Office fixed-rate boxes, which are $21.50 each. Might get a better rate just mailing them at the publication rate. I'll check next week. Still good?
I still have my Fox Software can coozies, though!

Ken, send it however is the least amount of trouble for you. I sent you an off-list email with my address. I greatly appreciate it! I'd like to get some other guys on the team at least to the point where they can get around Foxpro, so I am not the only one able to do that sort of work! I'm glad to pay for the shipping and some extra for your trouble if you want.
