What is SBase4 like?

I think the complete program came free on an old Amiga Format floppy
and it looked a little more useable than the sluggish Digita
Datastore.

When I asked on a forum about databases a month or so back I was told
AmiSQL was good.

Does SBase4 allow for embedded pictures, links or ASL requestors etc.?

Super Base 4 was an excellent data base, as far as it went - it has serious issues with OS 3.1 up however. The publishers never upgraded the software past OS 2.1. While the data base program will run under 3.1, the page editor will not, so that really kills the program.
I like the program so much I keep an old A500 here with 2.05 ROM and 2.1 OS just for this one program.
