FPW2.6 sample code 1

[chuffed]

Hi
I've just started programming in FPW2.6 and would appreciate any directions for 1) finding appropriate books with plenty of sample coding and 2) finding appropriate websites with sample code snippets. I'm hoping that I'll be up to speed more quickly by browsing through code thats properly written than muddling through the vast plethora of manuals that come with the package.

Thanks in advance.

Finding Manuals on a program that is several version out of date and no longer supported by Microsoft is going to be fun. You may try some of the "E-Bay" type sites or the on line book stores. You may also want to bookmark this site in your browser

If you can find it, the Fox Pro 2.5 programmer's reference by John Hawkins (que publishing) has really solid examples,and great descriptions of fox commands. If your new to programming in general you will find it a little on the heavy side.

Spring time is a good time to look for books. Try your local libary used books store. Plus libraries (in our area) are now holding fund raisers by selling old and donated books.

Try your local PC users group. Some of them have libraries.
Also try your local FoxPro users group. The one for the WASH.DC area is

Do not forget the net. Try the search engine

I have found serval sites thru them.
