David,

4D 3.0 will run 4D 2.x databases with minimal conversion effort. The major
problems occur with externals that may not be compatible with 4D 3.0.

However, 4D 3.0 is a completely different animal. It has its own
multi-tasking kernels--you can have multiple asynchronous
processes running, and multiple active windows open.

Best regards,
