Database exporting

[DonH]

Is it possible to export a blank database?

What I want to do is take a blank copy of the whole FM app that I have in 3.0 and use it to test compatibility with 6.0. Also a couple of other companies are actually interested in the app and we don't want to give it to them with the data in it.

Hi Don

Select File > Save Copy As ... and select 'clone' (no records). Now you've got a blank, unless I'm misinterpreting your request. Now, because it's vs. 3, when you try to open it with vs. 6, it will ask you if you want to save it as an .fp5. Just say yes and it'll convert it for you. I've downloaded many vs. 3's and it easily converts to 6!

Clone each dB FIRST and collect them all in one folder, BEFORE you begin opening them however, or you may break your links.

Then as each dB opens and says it can't find it's related dBs, just point to the next related fp3 and it will convert as you go!
