Going nuts trying to export

[itzmichele]

OK, so I've got FMP 4.0v3 running on Mac OS 9, and I want to export the records into Mac Address Book 3.1.1 (v301) running on Mac OS X Panther. I downloaded AddressBook Importer 2, but I still can't get it to export successfully. Anyone have a fix for this? I don't care if it costs money at this point, because the only other solution (according to my boss) is for me to RETYPE all 3600 files into the Mac Address Book. I will quit my job before I do that.

Just used fm6 to export a contact database as tab-delimited. Then I used Address Book Importer 1.2.3 (Looked like v2 wasn't done yet: http://www.roydesign.net/addressbookimporter/

Once I mapped the fields using this utility, importing went smoothly. (112 records)

I was told I need a working version of FMP 6 or higher in order to use ABI 1.2.3. But I will try again.

The Demo of FMP 6 available at FMI site, is a full working version of FMP. It's only limit is it expires in 30 days. To do what you want, would be done in minutes.
