Ah, I had Peter Norton's, I loved that book, also I had many other books for DOS, DBASE (my favourite one was the one written by Tom Rettig, I think many people in the UT were friends with him, but at the time I did not even know that he was the actor of Lassie) but my guess is that all these books were thrown away, as I left them in my mothers apartment in Buenos Aires when we moved here some 17 years ago... 17 years, time really flies.. I am looking right now the Charles Petzold "Programming Windows" (newer than yours as it is for 98), but it is not mine, its the company, and we do have very old books in here!

The last one I am not sure if you meant Borland or Zortech, I used the latter and I really liked it's editor
