Trouble Opening A File from OS X

[Corey Martin]

I'm on the latest trial version of Filemaker on my Mac OS X and my PC. I saved a FM file on the Mac and e-mailed it to my PC, where it couldn't be opened. Filemaker said it was not a Filemaker file or was severely damaged. I tried this many times with the same result. What could be happening here? Oddly, any file I e-mail from my PC to my Mac OS X opens fine, it just doesn't work the other way around.

Thanks,

And of course you have the file with name extension like fmdatabase.fp5?

[Corey Martin]

Correct, fp5.

Try to FTP the file, or transfer it via network or floppy or CD.

It should work unless Mac X is doing something strange with FM files.
