March 15, 200421 yr Newbies Hi experts I'm wondering why the Open File Dialog always appears after FMP is started up by double-clicking on a file icon? This is illogical and annoying. Is there any way to turn this off, or is it a bug? Thanks Version: v7.x Platform: Mac OS X Jaguar
March 15, 200421 yr if you are running the demo the it will only happen on the first lauch because of the days left warning, try double clicking after the app is already loaded

March 15, 200421 yr My Trial Version doesn't give me an Open File dialogue when I click on a database file. I do get the "Tye" or "Buy Now" dialogue of course. If you click on the application icon, it is supposed to give you an Open File dialogue. Perhaps that's what's happening.
March 16, 200421 yr Author Newbies Once the application is open, there is no dialog. But if you start the application and open a file at the same time by double-clicking a fmp-file icon, the user will be shown the Open File dialog, which doesn't make sense. If this is only a trial-version feature due to the Try/Buy dialog, I have no problem with it. Otherwise, it will make v7 useless. How would you explain such a "feature" to a customer? ... So, if somebody could confirm that this is only a trial-version problem, I would feel better. Thanks! Version: v7.x Platform: Mac OS X Jaguar
March 16, 200421 yr Can't say what the issue is in your case, but if I double-click an .fp7 file, it gets opened by FMP7 (full version) and that's all. No dialogs appear.
