Victor Leigh Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 That's right. Old and very rusty. No typo there. Very rusty. Not trusty at all. It had been decades since I last wrote any code. However the last I checked, one of the programs I wrote, a hotel front-office application is still running. So it looks like my bullet-proofing is still holding up. I started with Dos and dBase. Maybe some people here would think that I should be in the Jurassic Park. From dBase, I migrated to foxBase as soon as it came out and I tested it. foxBase was more than ten times faster than dBase. I joined this forum to get back into the swing of things. So many things have changed. Right now I am thinking of learning how to write a mobile app. Shouldn't be too difficult. I think. Never know until I really start writing the code. btw how do you write "Hello, World" for a mobile app?

Victor Leigh Posted May 11, 2012 Author Posted May 11, 2012 Thank you for your welcome. Are you sure it was really interesting? I mean, does anyone here use dBase or foxBase? They are very old programming languages.
Godric Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 I have used foxpro. But not fox base. But still a nice thread. I didn't know about these tools before. How old are they anyway?
Administrators Nathan Posted May 11, 2012 Administrators Posted May 11, 2012 dbase, never used it, is it tsql?
