August 20-23, 1998 - 2nd Annual Southern California Visual FoxPro Conference. Sponsored by Microcomputer Engineering Services, LLC, this conference was one of the highlights of the 1997 “conference season”, providing a chance to see nationally-known speakers in a somewhat smaller, more intimate setting. Last year, the conference drew attendees from New Jersey to The Phillipines. This time out, the conference is going to be held at The DoubleTree Hotel in Orange County. The conference WebSite is up and running (http://www.mesllc.com/conf98.htm.), providing all the details for this great cost-effective event. And, of course, you can follow all the details right here. So start making plans now to attend. [Ed. Note: For your convenience, a conference registration is included on page 9 of this issue.]

Since We Last Met...

Special Announcements

New Meeting Times for LA Fox. If you somehow missed the last LA

FoxCast, you need to know that the meeting times for LA Fox have been changed from 7:30 PM to 6:30 PM . According to the Airport Authority at Zamperini Field, where we meet, is forcing us to change our meeting time from 7:30-10:00 PM to 6:30-9:00 PM. Well, they’re not actually forcing us,

but we have to be out of the building by 9:00 PM, because it seems that our group stays the latest of any of the groups meeting there and they no longer wnat to pay someone to be there during our meeting. So, for now, I don’t see that we have much of a choice. We may just have to call a Board Meeting over this one.
