DataFlex 2021 has a lot of changes throughout the product. The two major changes are Unicode and 64-bit. This course will focus on what these changes mean, and how to successfully migrate code of an existing application to DataFlex 2021. Some of the changes may impact current applications, so changes to source may be necessary. Moving to DataFlex 2021 is optional, but to continue to benefit from future updates it is recommended that applications are migrated eventually.
