Hi Russ,
Hi All,

On http://paradigmasoft.com/en/products/download/beta

You can find 2.4.1 b1 builds for
    Vserver Office (not Embedded) mac
    V4RB MAC and MACHO

Russ, have test these builds. His comments are below.

To remind. This new build includes:

1) for CARBON vclient dropped usage of GUSI library that have emulate POSIX
sockets, instead now are used direct calls to OS X sockets.

2) optimized calls of get_DefautValue() to server

3) fixed RegisterDatabase()

Note, it is not best do vcursor.Datefield("mydate") few times.

better:

    dim fld as VDate

    fld = vcursor.Datefield("mydate")

    fld.Year = 
    fld.Month = 
    fld.Day =

This is in local or client mode? Or both ?
