One of the many expected Windows databases, Paradox for Windows offers a wide array of new features which make it the first database designed to take advantage of the powerful features of Windows 3.1. Among the improvements - the ability to browse a table in a window, rearrange data simply by dragging columns on-screen, alter data attributes by clicking on items and rows, access other systems on a Windows network, and design forms and reports with DTP-like builder tools. This volume teaches the fundamentals of database management with Paradox in a way that even the computer novice can understand. Hartman provides instructions, examples, and sample applications that any first-time user can understand. Readers get hands-on training with the interface and menus, a graphical form builder that works like a layout program, simple code that manipulates screen images, new networking options, import/export capabilities. Five working models are presented - inventory management, accounts receivable, medical records, personnel control, and rental property management, that readers can use as they are or customize for their own applications.
