Need a FMP 3 Server manual

[John Chamberlain]

I bought

[Anatoli]

IMHO -- there isn't much in manual.

Install FMS

Put the FM files with multi-user on into FMS directory. Underscore _ on the end of filename will hide the file like Menu.fp3 will be visible, Invoices_.fp3 will not be visible on network.

Restart the PC.

On any workstation open files with HOST button in Open dialog.

Thanks Anatoli

Any time Just ask questions

Actually there is a wealth of information in the manuals, some of it is actually worthwhile. However, you can't have mine because I am running FM 3 also.

I haven't tried the filename_.fp3. That may work. However, I DO know that filename.fp_ works to hide them. That is what all the files except the main one use to be hidden.

[Anatoli]

All my files are till today named like "System_.fp5".

The conversion to fp5 changed not only extension, but also set each such file as Multi-user Hidden.

Hi Don - Any chance of getting a Xerox of the manual? I will gladly pay the costs.

Regards,

John
