I tried to reach David to convert my 4 DB version of NewtDB to the 16
(or was it 32?) version at that address and several others I had. He
didn't reply to any of them. NewtDB is head and shoulders above any
of the other DB programs for the Newt, in my opinion. One of my apps
has aver 4000 records, and it never hiccuped. I routinely synced with
my Filemaker databases via XferDB.
I think the only way to reach him may be at his mailing address, if
he is still there.
