I will add my 2 cents worth here too. I agree with Jeff.
As a previous post noted a big cause of this problem was Apple. They forced
change on us, and on 4D. I was involved in an industry where each month brought
new requirements that were forced upon us by various governments that we had to
I think 32-bit applications will live on a lot longer than 2 years on Windows.
I haven't read anything that even hints that Microsoft is thinking about ending
32-bit application support. Heck, they still support 16-bit apps on 32-bit
Windows.
I would expect 32-bit versions of Windows

Hi Don,
I definitely will. I’m sure the end result of 4D Write Pro will be a big
improvement over the
Especially with 4D supporting the Blink engine on both platforms. I haven't yet
tried doing any web integrations with a version of 4D that uses Blink, but I'm
really hopeful that it makes things a lot smoother.

We’ve been using 4D Write quite extensively for years. We have over 200 user
licences on two big databases. We mostly use it now to generate html emails.
We haven’t undertaken the move to downgrade to the “pro” version, which we are
not looking forward to at all.
4D has been gutting

In principle, it should be possible to create a text editor in 4D
itself.
I believe that the 4D design interface is built in/with 4D. If this is
true, you should be able to build a tailorable text editor inside 4D.
The Method editor while not perfect, is a usable text editor.
IF that is true

The more things change the more they stay the same. 4D like any company
makes decision on how to spend money. There are probably not enough users
of 4D write to warrant the cost associated with porting to 64 bit. While
this hurts at one of my customers, think of it this way. How many of you

I have been using 4D Write Pro for quite some time now as an editor for E-Mails.
Porting the functionality I had before using 4d Write (mostly dynamic access to
data) was quite simple.
Nevertheless, there is quite a lot missing for it to replace 4D Write for those
who need a „real“ text editor.
If 4D Write Pro doesn’t, and won’t, have all the features of 4D Write then 4D
should give it a different name instead of pretending that it’s a replacement.
I’ve been totally baffled by this seemingly endless piecemeal rollout of a
“pro” product. I remember getting an email a couple years ago

Hi Don,
I heard
the Write Pro product suffers from such a paucity of usefulness, I am
hoping that they will at least allow plain 4D Write to run as a 32-bit plug in.
Under present circumstances a "Goodbye 4D Write" email today seemed a bit
off-key.
Thanks for responding,

From my understanding the "old" 4D Write will continue working in 32Bit
versions of 4D. There will be no 64Bit
Hi Don,
I agree with you that 4D Write PRO can't replace today 4D Write.
But, forget trying that 4D mantain 4D Write. Because MacOs High Sierra
is the last Mac Os working compatible 32 bits. So, all applications must
be 64 bits, in the future.
4D Write PRO borned 64 bits for that reason.

I was told by my rep that 4D Write would continue to work with future versions
of the program. I have over 200 customers on a 4D Write-based application.
