Ruby related to dBase?
-
It has been several years since I used it but in studying all the Ruby scripts they appear to look a lot like the old dBase language...Are they related???
Just wondering...

Thom Thom..........I guess Im showing my age..I said it's been awhile...Yes, dBase was used to handle data and not to do the magic you guys do but it was written almost exactly as Rubys..ex: if, then, else, or, at, color...I also used to write script that allowed it to work with Lotus 1-2-3...Oops, age again...

No, DBase, at least the last one I used, was not OOPS. Big difference. Actually Ruby is easier to use, misuse, and abuse:-)
