I am totally new to FileMaker and I created a solution for a friend that will help him manage his 1,000-odd member records (turned out great,thank you FileMaker). Well I created this using FMP7 on my mac and went to install FMP7 on his computer.... only to find out version 7 can't be installed on windows ME or lower. Talk about frustrating.... so now what do I do?? Can FMP6 read a .fp7 file or am I going to have to install Win 2k on his computer (last resort)? This database I created is straightforward and does not use relationships etc. Can someone help me?

Thanks

FMP 6 can not read FMP 7 files. If you redo the database in FMP 6 you maybe be able to copy some of the layouts from 7 and paste them into 6. You will have to export the data to a text file and then import it in to 6. There maybe a feature that you used that is not in 6.

It might be easier to update the operating system.
