QUESTION: What benefits can I expect as a beginning Clipper programmer? 

   We assume that Kit users have a solid command of programming concepts and
   that they are comfortable with single-user programming -- although you
   don't need to have much experience with Clipper.  If you haven't had much
   programming experience, the Kit is probably too advanced for you -- but
   then as a novice programmer, you're probably not writing any multiple-user
   applications!

   Most data-based applications, including Clipper applications, must now be
   written for multiple concurrent users, so the Kit's course provides two
   services.  First, it teaches you the theory of multiple-user programming
   which you must understand irrespective of your programming language or
   computing platform.  Second, the course teaches you multiple-user Clipper
   programming in comprehensive and explicit detail, making reference as
   appropriate to the Kit's library routines and its support utilities.

   After you have worked through the course, you will be able to use the
   documentation, support utilities, and library routines in the Kit to
   design and develop stable and correct multiple-user applications in
   minimum amounts of your time.  If you can write a simple and correct
   single-user program, the Kit will enable you to write a simple and correct
   multiple-user program.

   You will also be able to understand multiple-user applications written by
   others.  As your experience with Clipper and multiple-user programming
   grows, you will understand the concepts in the Kit's course more and more
   as you learn how to solve even vexatious programming problems quickly and
   elegantly with the Kit's support utilities and library routines.  You will
   eventually master most of the theoretical and practical issues of
   multiple-user programming -- a critical skill set in the Information Age!


QUESTION: What benefits can I expect as an intermediate Clipper programmer?

   You may have dabbled in multiple-user programming using the toy functions
   in the vendor-provided Locks.PRG, or multiple-user programming may be
   somewhat mysterious to you.  Now it's time to learn what this sort of
   development is all about.

   Every Clipper command that references a file or data in a file has a
   single-user as well as a multiple-user dimension.  The Kit's course will
   teach you the multiple-user aspects of each of these commands.

   As an intermediate Clipper programmer, you will have a little experience
   with the productivity gains you can get from exploiting subroutine
   libraries and utilities for programmers.  Working with the Kit will teach
   you as never before how to exploit libraries and utilities to boost
   productivity.  You will learn this in the context of producing useful and
   stable multiple-user applications in remarkably small amounts of time.


QUESTION: What benefits can I expect as an advanced Clipper programmer?

   You will burst through every bottleneck of understanding and programming
   power which previously limited the QUALITY and the QUANTITY of your
   multiple-user applications.  

   First, you might think that you don't need a multiple-user course if you
   have been doing multiple-user programming for several years, but customers
   and reviewers report the Kit's course is full of "Eureka!" revelations
   even for experienced programmers.  ("So THAT'S how that works!")

   You're going to understand multiple-user Clipper programming issues like
   never before.  You are going to be crystal clear about what you MUST do
   and what you MAY do.

   Second, you're going to solve your network-independent programming
   problems easily and elegantly with the Kit's source code subroutines and
   its support utilities.  The Kit reduces implementation to a SCIENCE so that
   YOU can concentrate on the ART of the programming and NOT THE DETAILS!

   Third, you're going to manage the network-independent aspects of your
   Clipper applications easily and elegantly through the capabilities of the
   Kit's subroutines and support utilities.  Need to add accounting or
   automatic auditing to your Clipper apps?  It's EASY with the Kit.

   Last, you will implement TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT with the Kit's
   technology, which includes implementation instructions and checklists. 
   The Kit's course and standardized framework for developing multiple-user
   applications means that quality is maintained even when there is staff
   turnover or reassignment!


QUESTION: What benefits can I expect as a master programmer or software
publisher?

   The Kit's completely-integrated components provide a development framework
   in which you can produce publication-quality multiple-user applications in
   the minimum possible amount of programmer time.  Whenever you meet a
   network-independent problem in multiple-user programming, you will find
   that WE HAVE BEEN THERE FIRST!

   The Kit was developed with the same intense and almost obsessive
   dedication to detail which you will find in the designers and crews of
   Indy-class racing cars.  Although its docusoftware design makes it useful
   and accessible to Clipper programmers at all skill levels, in the hands of
   a master programmer, the Kit howls like a Formula One race car in fifth
   gear at red-line....

   No compromises.

   Results or else.
