Professional Shareware
FoxPro Utility Library
The FoxPro Utility Library is a collection of all freely distributable
(Public Domain, freeware, shareware, contribution requested, demo
code, etc.) source code, utilities, applications, etc. for FoxPro
developers. The collection is available on CD-ROM.
A directory database
accompanying the library is a dBASE compatible .DBF file with
DOS search program. The database also lists all existing commercial
products, for one stop shopping for all existing FoxPro tools.
The directory database and library are updated quarterly.
Computer Language Magazine (in 1989, prior to being
renamed Software Development Magazine) said "quite possibly
the most useful tool for heavy developers... , Anyone who works
in dBASE or Fox ... should have a copy of the directory , any
programmer who doesn't want to reinvent the wheel should get the
library. This may be the most productive $100 you'll ever spend."
Since the time of the review, the library has grown by ten
times and improved even more. EMS also
buys and sells
old/out-of-print/used copies of Microsoft's FoxPro compiler and
add-on tools. We're extremely eager to buy copies of FoxPro 2.6
Professional for DOS/Windows and Visual FoxPro 3 for Mac. Name your price! Ordering
information.
