I love this program. I use it monthly to send a personalized newsletter to my customers (with their permission). The data is downloaded from a MySQL database right into Direct Mail. Works flawlessly.
4D 2004 rocks. You can have a true client/server database up and running in a day. And with a little more effort, you can give it exactly the interface you want. Even a web interface.
The database engine is rock-solid. You're not going to lose any data here. It also includes great automated backup features and a separate repair utility that can usually resurrect your data if it gets clobbered by system or hardware glitches.
Check out www.Mere-Mortal-Software.com for an example of a shareware product I created with 4D 2003.
Dictionaries are a necessity, but if you're just trying to learn a language, this program offers an excellent way to figure out how to say something in a foreign language. I use Ultralingua as least as often as I use my online dictionary.
