I have a copy of Theo De Klerk's book on my bookshelf.  I did the
technical review of that book (wow, that is a long time ago!)

 
It looks like it would be a very nice reference; it's a that it
is no longer available.  I wonder if the author retained rights,
or if those lie with Digital Press?  If the former, perhaps the
electronic copy others mentioned might show up in the Internet
Archive's library or something similar.

Good question.  My last email exchange with Theo was several years ago.
I suspect that Digital Press (or who ever bought all of their IP) would
still own the copyright to that version but could he provide an "almost
final draft" for some archive in much the same way the C/C++ standard
committees provide "drafts" of the standards to avoid copyright issues.

That would be very cool!  There aren't that many books about
OpenVMS out there, it seems; even fewer about application
development.  It would be great to have a few titles available.
