}>>>>>>>>> Perry's response to Charlie Sadler <<<<<<<<<< You are mistaken. FourGen no longer sells the "Business" version of our Accounting. For a period of time there was discussion on releasing a scaled back version of "Enterprise" that would have a subset of functionality and it would be called "Corporate". But that never transpired. The "Business" version, 3.83.UD1 is 100% CASE, as is the "Enterprise" version. The next release of "Enterprise" is due out in Q4 of this year and the version number will be 5.01.UC1. } From: charlie_sadler@mathworks.com (Charlie Sadler) } Subject: Re: Fourgen Case Tools and Accounting } Date: Thu, 03 Aug 1995 11:41:15 -0500 } To: informix-list@rmy.emory.edu } } Be careful.
