SB4 V1.01 is now mastered. I don't know if the marketing guys are planning to tell people, or to charge for the update – that's not my province. regardless, I'd recommend you to get hold of the new version. Please give messers Fedex & Co a few days to get the disks out to the remote corners of the earth (i.e. that little renegade colony called the US :-)) before you hassle people for a copy. It should be shipping in boxes within a week or two. Tim

Not a clue, sorry. Hopefully one of the US sales guys can comment… Tim

Steve, No request needed. Version 1.01 will automatically be sent to all registered SBPro4 users. – via Whap!

I got the impression Steve was still awaiting his upgrade from Pro to 4, not from 4 to 4.01… (could be wrong 🙂 Tim

To request the upgrade from Pro2/3 to Pro4, he needs to call Customer Service at (214)929-4888, ext.444. $149 from Pro3 to Pro4. – via Whap!

Tim, No, I have 4.0. I was asking about 4.0 to 4.01. Thanx for your concern though! Steve Whap!ping from beautiful coastal South Carolina

For minor upgrades and bug-squashes I always liked the idea of writing a program that modified/editted/corrected the code in the original program. That way it is of no use to anyone who hasn't got the original, and those who have it can download a relatively small updating program from your libraries here. Wouldn't that be nice? . . . . .

Actually, although we don't specifically do that, we _do_ have a system whereby an "update" product us useless to anyone that doesn't have a previously installed original. You will be pleased to know that the 1.01 release is actually smaller than the orignal (499K vs. 530K)! The changes are probably far too numerous to make a patch program viable for this release, also. Tim.

I sent for my upgrade on May 23 and paid the regular upgrade price. I didn't have a registration card in my original package, so after chatting with you here, I was asked to mark it for the attention of whoever replied to my query here. I did so, and haven't heard a word back since. Michael Loader

Since I'm in a completely different country, I can't really help you, other than to suggest you email the US folks on 76702,774, or give them a call at (214) 929 4888. There is a toll-free number, but sorry I don't know it. You probably spoke to either Michael or Duke before. Tim

Michael, When we shipped the upgrades, we kept half of the registration card. No need to worry. – via Whap!
