Re: Idiot needs help :)

Roger: I appreciate your kind offer to help, however, if you don't have the time (which I fully understand), please let me know and I'll see if someone else here can give me a hand. Either out of the goodness of their heart, so they can laugh at my lack of knowledge, or for a few bucks. Any of those...

Idiot needs help :)

First, I am the world's worst programmer, I freely admit that. Never learned anything about it but got forced into it about a decade ago when my partner (who was the programmer) retired.

xbase 2.0

i'm presently using xbase build 355 and express build 254. i want to try the xbase 2.0 demo (installed on a separate boot to avoid any potential conflict). what do i need to do to get express to work with 2.0?

thanks.
