OS 5 and Openbase

[Jim Pistrang]

Hi Steve,

Using Openbase and Studio 5 all the time, but only on Macs.  I am using Openbase with Studio 4.3 on Windows, no known problems.  OpenBase is still in business.

If you want, send me a sample (off-list) of a query that works from Mac and kills from Windows & I'll take a look.
