[FX.php List] Upgrading from FMS 7 and FX

[Bob Patin]

John,

You should go ahead and make the leap to (at least) 8.5, although I'm  
not sure where you'll find 8.5 anymore other than on eBay (and be very  
careful there--I've heard several stories of ripoffs on FileMaker  
software sales on eBay).

I program with both FX and with the API; now that the stability  
problems are gone (for me anyway) with FMS 9, I've been very happy  
with it.

Best regards,

Bob Patin
