We have a big legacy system that started its life in 1990, so on the French version 4. It has been migrated through versions like 6.5, 6.8, 2003, 2004, v11, v12, v15 and now v17. We made the jump from v12 to v15. The biggest issues were getting the unique ids in place and removing 4D chart.
We’re now replacing 4D Write with Write Pro. That’s a big job and 4D didn’t make it easy.
