Re: Upgrade v4 to v5 or more

I have seen 4.12 4GL problems that make me want to go back a rev on some machines, and others the problem never appeared. Don't lock-step the engine with the 4GL. 4.00 4GL was a bad version as far as what I've seen, but it was a nice improvement over 2.10... Unless you get some inside information first, I would ask which combinations are the best for a given machine.
