I have FM3 on 1 windows mach and a bunch of macs. 2 files are constantly crashing only when used on the windows machine. They are being recovered at a constant rate. The major problem is we seem to be losing information in those crashing files. I havecreated a clean copy, and recovered the files to try and find a corrupt file, but it all works fine on the mac. It seems also, over the weekend, a few of the fields disappeared in one of the files. Help

Thanks for responding. Yes, we do have a copy of Filemaker installed on the server. It is only installed but not running on the server. All the files are on and worked off of the server. All files are multi-user.

We are running filemaker 3 on macintosh (mac OS 8.5-9.0, imacs, ibooks, powerbooks, starmax, ect.) and windows (95) all off a appleshare IP 6.2 server (starmax). The windows machine seems to be where the main problem is. A few of the filemaker files seem to be crashing on the windows 95 machine randomly thus causing complete recovery. It isn't just one file, but a couple. Now, one of the files can not be opened at all. It crashes the windows 95 computer and freezes any mac that trys to open it. It has been recovered a few times, but still no avail. We are planning an upgrade to filemaker 5 in the future, but wanted to keep 3 working for a bit longer. I'm not sure what else to do about the crashing and corrupt file.
