FM 5.0 CRASHING When Using a Large Calculation Field

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

I am using Filemaker version 5.03 on a windows 2000 Pentium 3 350MHZ with 192 of RAM. On my solution I have a really large calculation on a calculation field that I want to add some more formulas, however every single time I try to do that filemaker crashes. I already tried splitting up the formula into separate calculation fields but it is still crashing. I also tried doing the same thing on my windows 98 installation but it crashes anyway. ANY HELP OUT THERE PLEASE!!!

Have you already tried to 'recover' the file. In many cases (like print crashing, etc ... ) this will help you ...

I had a similar problem with a large number of formulas that were all interrelated, I solved the problem by changing the calculation fields to "Stored Calculations" under options in field definitions, this will work as long as they are not dependant upon external data, summary fields or global fields, hope this will help you.
