          for CA-Clipper Summer '87 through 5.2.  Versions            
          are available which work with standard NTXs as              
          well as the Comix replaceable database driver               
          (RDD). ClipMore works by analyzing a condition and          
          using indexes to rapidly find the records which             
          meet the condition without accessing the (.DBF) at          
          all, and can even speed up access without indexes.          
          In addition, ClipMore provides low-level functions          
          to give you complete control over the optimization          
          process.  If it can be done with a query optimizer          
          you can do it with ClipMore!

             improvements are 10 to 1 up to 1000 to 1       
            Simple to use: Simplicity of SET FILTER TO;    
             just specify the condition & ClipMore accesses 
             the records as efficiently as possible for you 
            Low-level functions give you complete control  
             over optimization to let you optimize anything
