In a letter, dated dec 11 1987, Versasoft (the writers of dBMAN) offered
me an upgrade to version 4.00. This version should read and write dBASE III+
files, knowse about BROWSE and memo-fields and should run most dBASE III+
applications without modifications. The ASSIST funktion was already there
(in version 3.X) but was in fact a sophisticated application written in
dBMAN itself. In dBASE III+ it's a function. (dBMAN: do assist, dBASE: assist).
It (v.4.00) should be faster too. Mouse driven menu's were already possible
in version 3.X.
I upgraded to version 4.00 but I didn't receive anything yet, so I can't tell
you if everything promised will work too.
