Chris,

Yes.  To see what the impacts would be, please review the Release Notes
for both the 7.40 and 7.50 releases.

SVGIF has not been changed, so the process of turning a display into
a GIF (tm) will not change.  The process for generating the display
will, on the other hand, most likely change for you (depends on what
you are using).  ADDE routines will eventually totally replace non-ADDE
routines where data access is concerned.
