Hi! One small question: Does anyone know the difference between 2.0.10 and 2.0.11 of 4th Dimension? Thanks in advance, Kristinn Eiriksson, Iceland

I can't remember but it all really doesn't matter anymore. They upgraded to version 2.0.3 recently and then just last week I received a copy of 2.1. It has major improvements. -Craig (flowers@csrd.uiuc.edu)

I am in the market for a database product and 4th Dimension seems to get the highest marks in the reviews I've read. Does anyone have any comments, advice, or horror stories?

E mail me the specs on what you what in your database and I might be able to say something meaningful about thses two programs. As it is, each has it's pros and cons, depending on what it is you want. Also please send specs on how much room (MEGS of disc) you have as a maximum. 4th D., takes one hell of a lot of space.

Hi there. I was wondering if any 4D users could tell me exactly how fast 4D was as far as multi-user databases are concerned. I hear rumours that it is _really_ slow. But I know that it is an awesome product. What I would like from the net world is personal testimonials about why you decided to use (or not use) 4th Dimension for your multi-user relational database solution. Please respond by email. Also, what ever happened to that book that was supposed to come out about 4-D?
