:) Thanks, Larry.  I can host that download on theDBCommunity and on ParadoxCommunity (which
I intend to keep indefinitely).  No rush, IMO.

Thanks for all you're doing!  All the best to you and yours, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays,
etc. :)

How many Paradox users were there left, did you say? Is it worth $150 a year? Or just download
the HTML to your hard disk directory. Then decide about the groups.
