Look at the Microsoft or Borland product lifecycle sheets for examples of how the word is used: A product is "supported" when you can buy support to get technical help for your problems. If you mean to say "last published fix," then why not use the correct terminology? AFAICR, IB 6 (including Open Edition) was supported up through sometime last year. > Why off-topic? Because your own personal history of misusing these newsgroups to promote databases other than InterBase precedes you. Don't pretend that your spam on these groups never happened. The Borland newsgroups exist to provide technical support for users of Borland products, not to promote your personal projects. Further ads or disingenuous questions from you will be cancelled. -- Craig Stuntz [TeamB] . Vertex Systems Corp. .
