<p>BLUE WORLD SHIPS LASSO WEB DATA ENGINE 3.6</p>
<p>Free upgrade for Lasso 3.x customers includes new documentation, new<br />
functions, enhanced security, and new database support.</p>
<p>Bellevue, WA--January 5, 2000--Blue World Communications,<br />
Inc.--pioneers of the Web Data Engine--today announced the immediate<br />
availability of Lasso Web Data Engine 3.6, a free upgrade to Lasso 3.x<br />
providing new documentation, new functions, enhanced security and<br />
error handling, support for FileMaker Pro 5.0v2* and FileMaker Pro 5<br />
Unlimited, and more. Blue World also announced revisions to the Lasso<br />
Product Line.</p>
<p>"Lasso Web Data Engine 3.6 represents vast improvements to<br />
documentation and functionality which will dramatically increase the<br />
productivity of developers in the thriving Lasso community," said Bill<br />
Doerrfeld, president and CEO of Blue World Communications, Inc. "The<br />

success in the rapidly growing Web application server arena."</p>

enhancements to discussions of methodology, Inlines, security, code<br />

privileges granted. Lasso Web Data Engine 3.6 allows each Web server<br />
or virtual host to define site-wide custom Lasso error pages providing<br />
enhanced personalization. Lasso Web Data Engine 3.6 provides the<br />
following new tags and functionality: - SQL Query wizard - Ability to<br />
include binary documents within format files (Include Raw) - Enhanced<br />
URL encoding controls (Encode Strict URL) - European currencies<br />
conversion (Euro) - IP address to host name conversion (NSLookup) -<br />

Module for Apple Event communication with FileMaker Pro 5.0v2* and<br />

conjunction with the FMP Data Source Module and FM Remote Module<br />
enabling concurrent access to multiple installations of both FileMaker<br />
Pro 3/4 and FileMaker Pro 5 databases.</p>
