Thanks a lot, guys. Yes, this helps a great deal. At this point I'm running FM 6, not FM Server. But I'm planning to upgrade to FM7. Since I only have 6 machines on the network, I thought File Maker Pro 7 would be all I need. Apparently, I need File Maker Server as well, is that correct?? That would reside on the server and each client machine would still have to have the FileMaker 7 application?
