FoxPro Commands 1

[Brooks100]

Afternoon Folks,
I would like to know if there is an online downloadable or purchase(able) resource that contains all commands for older versions of FoxPro. I would also appreciate it if this resourc had examples and decent explanations for those commands. I just got stuck supporting this awesome program and require assistance.
Thanks,
Brooks100

Watch eBay. FoxPro programs pop up there every once in a while. Have bought several legitimate copies (MAC 2.5, 2.6, & 3.0) there myself for under $20 each just to get the manuals. Sooner or later whatever you need will show. Just set your eBay preferences to notify you when one comes up for bid..o

How about the helpfile?
Just press F1 in the main program.

However if, as you say...
" I just got stuck supporting this awesome program and require assistance."
you might want to consider making it even much more awesome by converting to Visual Foxpro.

Not only will you get full documentation and be able to purchase currently off-the-shelf reference books, you will also have access to a current programming language instead of a VERY old one.
With all of that you will also be able to enhance/modify/expand its capabilities with 21st century programming functionality.

Good Luck,

There is a book called, "Hacker's Guide to Visual FoxPro 3.0" by Tamar E. Granor and Ted Roche. The ISBN is 0-201-48379-3, and it retailed for about $45.00, published is 1996 by Addison-Wesly. I think that might have what you are looking for.
