When I reply to questions for help here or elsewhere, I try to give answers
that only use straight MPE, IMAGE or QUERY, because you don't always know
what other people have.  I would say that at least half of my users don't
have third-party packages such as MPEX, SUPRTOOL or QEDIT.  (All of them,
thank heavens, have either DBGENERAL or ADAGER).
