My findings also... I like DXBase... But it was very slow on my Pentium
at the time. It's advantage is it uses the Microsoft Jet DB... But
that's it's disadvantage too!

Also I find DX4Win more efficient in it's use of screen real-estate.

You should have waited a few more weeks. Paul won't release a program
until he is sure it is stable... But it's worth the wait.

Oh well... DXBase is nice too...

I have found that to be true also.

DXBase is a very resource intensive program.  It takes forever to load
and once it does, it's very slow.  This contributed to my decision to go
with DX4Win several years ago.

In contrast, DX4Win is a very efficient program, works well while other
things are running, and even 5.03 does everything I *need*.

My expectation is that the new version will be excellent also, and will
be well worth the wait.

I'm curious what is so urgent that the release of version 6 is "not soon
enough"?

73,
