What  does this mean?

"If you have a multi-file solution (ie. separation model or migrated from older FileMaker version), make sure that there is a single main file with external table occurrences referencing the other files. If you are using a separation model, this should be the data file. When you distribute offline files to your users, you will distribute the entire set of files, which will include the main sync file."

Does this mean i should set up all the databases under external data sources in one of the databases? or am I misunderstanding it. 

 

Tanks for you help.

Yes, that is exactly what it means - one of the databases in your solution must contain external references to every other database that you want to sync. When you set up the sync, point it to that master database file.
