 the following message is from the person who posted the man question in the first place...seems he was looking for an electronic answer after all :-)

>>Thanks, I'll give the O'Reilly books a try. Besides that I'm still looking
for some reference that I can put on my Notebook to have a fast accesible reference when I'm visiting my clients. The HTML docs are much to large to work with.

Gee my laptops batteries last a very long time and I have hot swappable spares as well as a plug that connects to WALL OUTLETS :-)

BOOT UP??? - Most of my machines are never turned off, except when I sleep...now when did I sleep last?? ;-)

My main complaint with YOUR product is the still COST, when I can it from the horse's mouth (ORACLE) for FREE albeit electronic and wordy, but at least I know what ORACLE thought it was doing after reading THEIR documentation rather than someone else's interpretation/translation...

And yes I did check out your web site
www.q-file.com
and looked at your product...oh...by the way you are welcome for another free plug of your web site ;-)
