Caceres Salvador A D #1 / 7	Please, suggest a good book! -- Hi everybody, Can anyone recommend me a good book to help me develop a small database on Paradox 4.5 for Windows. I don't have much time to read, so something direct to the point and with examples would be good. I am volunteering on a community center which recently opened a food bank. They want a database for the customers, with reports, statistics, etc. Thanks in advance, Salvador ////////////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ http://www.***.com/ ~g5sal \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\//////////////////

I don't have much time to read, so something > direct to the point and with examples would be good. I have six (6) books on Paradox for Windows. I use v5 and v7. I own three books which are worth a damn, the best being _Programming Paradox for Windows_ by Jensen and Anderson, 3rd edition, published by Sybex. Unfortunately it does require more reading than I would like. In terms of having good examples the best book I have is _Paradox for Windows Power Programming_ published by Que. This book has good examples and is excellent in terms of minimizing excess verbage. Both of these books claim to be advanced - neither is. I come to Paradox by way of C++ programming where there are some excellent, _advanced_ books. Can anyone reccomend one?

I just picked up _Programming Paradox for Windows_ by Jensen and Anderson, 3rd edition. It's for Paradox 5. Will it be useful in v7? I'll be developing under Win95/NT. The only books I could find were for v5. BTW, what happened to v6? --Marc Respass visit the Joel Rivard Group home page at http://www.tiac.net/users/marcr/

Since they are functionally identical programs (the main difference only being the platforms they run on) Borland didn't want to hurt sales of the new 16-bit Paradox by making people think it wasn't as powerful as the 32 bit version.
