Abstract

At California State University Long Beach Library, the bulit-in programming language of dBase 3 Plus, was used to create a menu-drive interface for an automated ready-reference file. An easy-to-use in-house database requiring no dBase experience eo access was created. The database and all necessary programs can be stored on one low density disc and readily be shared
