[Dxbase] Fw: DxBase

[Wes N7WS]

I believe it's Access 98.  I have a not quite so old Access 2000 and it gives a 
warning about opening a DXBase .mdb.   That said, I discovered years ago that if 
I have both programs open on the same database I can make changes to it in 
Access and the changes ripple through to DXBase.   Helpful for Search and 
Replace and such.  Otherwise not so much.
