Hi,

Great to see this new newsgroup replacement forum!

I never had success locating a copy of Service Pack 4 for Paradox v.9.  All of my development has been done with version 9 as this works the best under Linux Wine. 

Many years ago, I contacted Corel offering to pay for the upgrade, but at that time, they were unwilling to provide support.  I'm not sure why, but Corel's FTP site never offered SP4?

Anyone know where I can obtain a copy?   

Thank you,

Sean

My recollection is that SP 4 was part of the SP 4 for Wordperfect 9
Professional version and was only available from Corel in 2004 as a
purchase by mail of the CD.

Michael, correct.. I'll be more specific.. SP4 has never been commonly available, and I am actually not aware of any obvious "SP4 fixed that" issues.. we have all been using SP3 for 20 years, with no problems.. if you have an actual problem that SP3 does not fix, move to P10, which includes all P9 SP

Thank you for the information on SP4.  I wasn't sure if I have been missing anything while using v.9 w. SP3 for development.    Once developed, I do use runtime v.11.0.0.676 under Linux Wine to run my applications, which works fine.   From distant memory, I believe I had an issue with printing on v.9 SP3 that pushed me to use runtime v.11; otherwise, v.9 SP3 has been great to use.
