[DXBase] DXB5.0 to DXB2000/DXB2003 ??

Wed, 6 Nov 2002 17:46:51 -0500

Helmut,
A lot has changed since DXbase 2000. There have been three upgrades since
then. I have not heard of any problems with any of the issues you mention
in DXbase 2003, but if you would like to email me your .adi file, I'll check
some of those things here. Email it [email protected]
Regards,
Courtney
