So CLARIS has released FileMaker Pro. If you purchase FileMaker II now, the upgrade is apparently free (so says MacWarehouse literature). Does anyone know whether this is also true for copies of FileMaker II purchased with the academic discount? We can get FileMaker II for $100.- here. Anyone have experience with this? Anyone from CLARIS want to comment? Thanks. Chris fri0@midway.uchicago.edu

What you need to do is when you buy FileMaker II, immediately send in your registration card. When we do release (there will be announcements, believe me), then call Claris Costumer Relations and go through them. Remember, anybody who bought FileMaker II after April MacWorld can upgrade to FileMaker Pro for free! Being in Product Developement, I do not know how much it is to updgrade FMII pre-April or FileMaker Plus or FileMaker 1.0, but the people in Customer Relations do. Call 1-800-544-8554 (in the US) to get more info on updrades. We expect release Real Soon Now. -- Syd Polk | Wherever you go, there you are. jazzman@claris.com | Let the music be your light.

For the best info, call Claris customer service. Besides, it is well worth the price. I know. Right, jazzman? Dennis K.
