Now, having a good expertise with 4D I think I can made an educated comment about it : this is the worst piece of software I've seen. Ever. I'm sorry to tell that, but I'm sincere.
Working with 4D bring you back 20 years in the past.
I believe that if you have absolutely no experience in programming and if you start with 4D you would perhaps tell : "wow, I can do amazing stuff with 4D!". Yeah, if you never saw a car and if someone gives you a good ole East German "Traban", the people's car, you will find it an amazing experience wile learning to drive on it.
If later you try a modern, high standard BMW car, you will probably wonder how one can even drive that piece c*** named "Traban".
With 4D it's the same :-)
A software version of the Traban ...

And regarding 4D.. "to build custom applications that look great". Great? GREAT? 4D produces the worst looking database clients I know of.

What database on Mac OS X is better????
Filemaker Pro - too limited, too slow.
Provue Panorama 6 - too quirky, difficult to do relations and track them, 20 y.o. interface.
There aren't many other choices in Mac OS X where you don't have to do heavy-duty programming.

A lot of the new functionality makes it great for working with SQL and it isn't a bad backend for ExtJS or Flex either.
