COMPILING DBASE PROGRAMS WITH CLIPPER 1

[NHM]

HI
I USED CLIPPER TO COMPILE DBASE PROGRAMS 8 YEARS AGO. NOW I WANT TO DO THE SAME BUT I FORGOT HOW TO USE THE PLINK86. FIRST I COMPILE WITH CLIPPER AND IT WORKS, THEN I KNOW I HAVE TO USE PLINK86. I FORGOT THE SYNTAX AND THE PROGRAM DOESN´T ACCEPT THE NDX FILES. I NEED TO GIVE A COMMAND FOR THE CLIPPER TO ACCEPT NDX FILES IN THE COMMAND PLINK86 BUT I DON´T REMENBER. COULD YOU HELP ME WITH THAT? THANK YOU.

I saw that at

http://www.whitetown.com/ng/index.php3?lang=0&what=3

they didn't have the clipper S 87 norton guide yet, so I've provided it to them.
The file will be available on the presented link shortly.
