A fiels with "unique" in the field definition can contain doubles: 1) when duplicating a record 2) when autonumbering is used, and the value to be filled in is altered in field definition. In both cases no warning is issued to inform you about a double in a unique field. I this a bug, or should i protect my "unique" field in a other way?? Thanks for all advice

Filemaker Pro 5.5 v2 But I have these problems since I use fmpro, that is Version 2. In fact, reading the different forums on the net I conclude that many people face these problems. Basically it seems that fmpro windows version does not really integrate the windows platform when it comes to printing. I'm just curious how other user's cope with the problem.

Hi Vaughan, I use: Operation system Windows XP Pro Filemaker Pro 5.5

Very often i have the problem that even when my layouts look fine in "preview"mode, the printout is lousy. Words half printed, ( in lenght or in height) lines changes, even pagination changes. I use the newest drivers, no help. I also notice that fmpro does not take into account priner parameters that are set in windows. I seems that fmpro runs it's own printer driver and does not use the windews printer parametrage. All info about this is welcome.

I want to switch from paper/mail or fax mailings to e-mail mailings to my customers. Therefore I want to insert the pages with created with fmpro 5.5 in my email. for instance, I use my orderform layout to create a 2 page orderform in FMPRO, which i want to seen at the end of my mail. Customers should be able to hit the reply button and put "X" in front of each article the order, or eventually a number to indicate a quantity. Also they should be able to fill in their name and adress. Thus I cannot use PDF files, as one cannot write in them. There must be a way to insert pages created by FMPRO in a mail soft, or Word, or any other text soft. Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.
