Where can I get technical support for CA-Clipper?
The phone number (in the United States) for CA-Clipper technical
support is +1 516 342 4620. (If you do not reach a qualified
technician right away my experience is that you will receive a
phone call back within about two hours.) You must already have
a site number assigned by Computer Associates to use telephone
support. Fortunately, one is provided when you send in your
CA-Clipper registration card.
Computer Associates has a staff member assigned to monitor the CLIPPER
forum on Compuserve and answer questions for users. Computer Associates
staff members also read the Clipper-related newsgroups with some
regularity, although their presence is not a formal CA support function.
Your local PC user group is likely to have a database programming
section or CA-Clipper special-interest group. You may download a list
of recognized CA-Clipper user groups in file UGLIST.ZIP in Library 17.
