No, because the standardized 32-bit file I/O used by filePro is limited
to 2GB file sizes.
Hold on... you said "could be a version", not "is a version". Yes, there
will be a version of filePro that handles 64-bit file I/O. This will not
be limited to 2GB or even 4GB, as long as the O/S and the filesystem will
support such files.
