Two things - one - DB IV had a GREAT report writer - very RPG-2 ish. You could throw in breakpoint sub-totals anywhere, AND it gave you the source code in dbase for the report!
When I worked in Clipper later I wanted to get DB4 just to create the reports in it and paste the source code into Clipper. Couldn't find it then.
Also - I liked Pointcast. I wish it had stuck around.
