There's a service pack that brings it up to V10.11.04 at the old WRKDBF
Downloads page on the Wayback Machine:

The file itself is:

It's a zip archive containing a save file, but I don't know whether it
will fix your issues.

I've used WRKDBF for years (decades it seems) and I never considered it
either clunky or unstable. Given the fact that it was written by one
guy in his free time (and I believe it started from a code generator),
it's incredibly powerful. I think comparing that to Thunderbird and the
hundreds of developers and thousands (millions?) of users is quite the
stretch.

The iSeries community owes a huge debt to Bill Reger, and I only wish he
had decided to bring the tool into the next generation of applications.

All I know is that in the version I'm looking at on a customer box,
"V10.10.03," I have to bring up an F4 window to position by key, and
then confirm that I want to reposition (clunky), and I've seen it slip
vertically when I'm attempting to page horizontally (slightly unstable),
and crash completely if I try to go to a single-record view on a file
with very large records (very unstable). I've also found that attempting
to hide the columns I don't care about, in order to fit the ones I'm
interested in on a single screen, works erratically at best.
