[Dxbase] Dxbase Digest, Vol 154, Issue 3

[Lou Laderman]

I think the OQRS is most similar to manager, as there's a web site that you might be able to link to (in lieu of a person) that directs the request to the proper handler. 

I agree an OQRS field entry would be great. As would an overall update of the program. (Hint hint)
