For years I used Approach. It was a balance between the simplicity of Works and the complexity of Access. It used a fraction of the memory footprint and was my first fully relational multiuser success. Then when I upgraded to a new computer it warned me that approach was incompatible. I didn't try to load it but bemoaned its loss. Since then I have had countless people who need a desktop database and nothing to offer them. Nothing that fills their needs.
Now this version loads and works. So many features such as the form letters are infinitely better than any other product on the market. The ease of setting up a single table list is great for anyone that is not a serious database user. I can't thank you enough for making this available to me again. PS I own many versions of smartsuite.
Wordpro was always a bit clunky. But AmiPro was an excellent balance between features and performance on even the lowest powered computer. Personally I would have preferred to have exactly that product rewritten for 32 bit. Alas it never happened. Why is it that in the lust for ever more power computer companies have almost killed their own markets and made their products largely unsuitable for the people who are using them? Since 1990's, I have been using Approach database for my more than 30,000 bibliographical research notes, and have not had any need for any other more recent databases.
It has been stable, and two or more instances of the same database and apr file can be opened for easy browsing and cross reference. Recently, I lost my old installation file, saved in a server that destroyed all my files. I happen to find it here, and I am so very grateful. I hope Microsoft does not do anything silly to its Windows OS to make this wonderful program not compatible, as i plan to use it to the end of my life. UK based, but in the USA, I needed to open a 123 file on a new NUC. Having discs at home, I did not want to buy again, so found this site, downloaded the full 9.8 En version and then installed just WordPro and 123, which went in like a dream, to my amazement! The only thing that may have made a difference was that I was logged in as 'Administrator'.
