SUPERBASE PROFESSIONAL 4 VERSION 1.0 March 15th, 1991
===============================================================================
This document contains information which could not be included in
the User Guide.
TUTORIAL
--------
The Superbase tutorial in Chapter 33, Volume 1 of the User Guide
should be done in the IDEAS sub-directory. IDEAS contains the
ACCOUNTS.CSV file, which is required for the tutorial.
DBASE FILES UNDER DML
---------------------
dBase files opened directly under DML must be indexed before you can
browse, using SELECT NEXT and SELECT PREVIOUS.
COMPATIBILITY WITH SUPERBASE 4 WINDOWS
--------------------------------------
Superbase Professional 4 is largely compatible with Superbase 4
Windows. Data files and programs should be portable between the two
without difficulty. However, forms are not compatible and must be
created using the appropriate version of the Form Designer.
The following DML commands are either not available or do not function
identically in both environments:
BELL
CALL
DDE$
DDEINIT
DDETERM
DDEPOKE
DDEREQ
DDEEXEC
FN sys
FREE
SAY
SET MIN
SET PG
SET PRINTER
STATUS ON/OFF
All LAN-specific commands
In addition, commands introduced in Superbase 4 Windows Version 1.3
are not available in Superbase Professional 4 Version 1.0.
COMPATIBILITY WITH SUPERBASE PROFESSIONAL V. 3.02
-------------------------------------------------
A few 3.02 level DML commands behave differently under Superbase
Professional 4.
LOAD SET expects to find a SUPERBAS.INI file in S:
SET FORM is replaced by SET PAGE.
SET PG 3.02 syntax only works if the printer is set to PREFS.
SET PRINTER ON/OFF is obsolete.
MARGINS
-------
The margins set in the Set Page requester are additional to those set
in Preferences. For example, a Set Page left margin of 1 inch and a
Preferences left margin of .5 inch results in an overall margin of 1.5
inch.
PRINTING
--------
If you are using a Superbase SB_printername.ini file, you must ensure
that this printer is also selected as the preferences printer.
