>>>Cool! Do you know if they are legally published books? I have plenty of English FoxBASE and early FoxPro books if you want/need 'em.

Adoptive parents have to spend about 2 weeks in China processing paperwork, etc. so we took the opportunity to walk about as much as possible. One day, while walking down the street in Nanning, Guangxi province, we came across a bookstore. We strolled in, thinking we might find some good children's books. And lo! there before me were 5 FoxBase + books in Chinese! I bought one as a memento!

>>This brings up a nagging question. How come all these Chinese and Russians FoxPro developers are running around using the Fox? I thought it was illegal to export such dangerous technology. Maybe they're building their own defense logistics systems?< G >

You mean they "paid" for one copy? Nah, they probably stole it from some CIA type.< G > Just another useless and unenforceable law, kinda like the encryption thing.
