                      double-check on this to be sure

            QuickConverter 2.0 - QuickConverter is the result of
            my attempts to use applications like Excel and
            FoxPro to analyze transactions from Quicken
            registers. For example, if Excel or other
            spreadsheet programs could read Quicken files, one
            could sort and total transactions by the
            �Description or �Memo fields as well as by category,
            or perform max./min./avg. analyses on transactions.
            While Quicken allows one to export a collection of
            transactions to a �TEXT file, the format of the data
            in that file is not useful in other programs.

            TidBITS#201/08-Nov-93 - Ever wondered what those

            Check out Brady Johnson's article on just what you
            aren't agreeing to. In the more agreeable
            department, we look at two PowerBook books,
            including the essential PowerBook Companion, glance
            briefly at the latest in viruses, peek through a
            keyhole at the upcoming FoxPro for Macintosh, and

            dbf-to-html - HTML publishing from a database. This
            application merges a database with an html template
            file to create an html file for every record in a
            database. It also creates an index html file with
            hyperlinks to each html file created. No programming
            required. I wrote this application as a result of
            having to write a lot of messy, hard-wired programs
            to generate html files from dbf records. Instead of
            embedding html in hard-wired, database specific
            programs, I decided to write an app that would merge
            a database file with an html file, just like a mail
            merge. This applications requires FoxPro/Mac, but
            will work on any dbf file. If you are using
            FileMaker Pro, just export to dbf format.
