However, when I did find - was a small book called FoxTales: Behind the Scenes at Fox Software. And, in the past I have read some true stories about technology - like "Mind of a New Machine" and "iWoz". So - I figured this would be interesting. And, indeed - Kerry Nietz is doing a great job in telling of the story. Am at the point in the book where the product was renamed from FireFox to FoxPro - and Kerry is relaying his work in creating the Report Writer (originally based upon a 3rd party program - which they then integrated into FoxPro for DOS).
A great book. I looked, and, yes, it is on the shelf about five feet away. I should reread it.
