Makes me curious. I bought the first version of FileMaker Pro in 1991 and never upgraded, as I could read my files on my older computers. Now Bento is cheaper, really only a fraction of the 1991 price. Hence a few questions:
Will the current Bento version read my FileMaker Pro files? Save them in the Bento format? Are there free Bento readers for Mac, Windows, smartphones, and iPads? Is it possible to import a huge index in Word format into Bento?
