Automatically copies fields when dragged

Featured Replies

I'm running Filemaker Pro 5 on Mac OS X. Just recently, I'm having a problem while I'm in the layout mode. Whenever I would drag a field, it would copy the field instead of moving it. I'm not holding down any keys or double clicking the mouse when dragging. I can only move the field by using the arrow keys. Is there something I inadvertently did that caused this to happen? What can I do to fix this problem? Thank you in advance for your help.

Is FMP 5.0 recommended for OS X? I thought only 5.5 worked.

Is that why this is occurring? I just upgraded the OS to OS X and that's when I started noticing this problem. Everything else seems to run fine expect when I'm in the layout mode.

Someone else in one of the other forums mentioned this problem too, using FM 5.5 I think. Don't know if there is a solution, but you could check in the Filemaker Products>>Filemaker Pro area.

BTW, I don't think "upgrade" is an appropriate word when describing the switch from OS9 to OSX. smile.gif

Maybe someday, but not yet.
