how can I convert MS Access DB into FMP 6 on MAC?

Hi FM community,

I'm a brand new user of FMP and I have switched from Windows to OS 10.3

Now I need to convert my research db from Access into FMP 6. I have no idea how to do it.

Or is there anybody around, who could give me a template, where I can tackle all my research papers, speeches, essays etc as well as quotations, books etc.? And I have a power rechereche to browse in all categories at the same time?

I have also in my access db functions, where I can view all my given speeches according the location hold at or view all topics given a a certain place so far.

So are there such ready made templates ("resources research") as freeware available?

Looking forward to hear from this community

Michael,

I doubt very much if there is any 'freeware' to do what you want but I'm not too sure what you want.

I am guessing that your Access DB is very simple with not mucch more than a single table with Date, Subject, Author, Content, Location. By far the easiest way to convert would be to re-design your DB in FMP and then export/import the data.

If you still have access to the PC, you could do all that on the PC and, because FMP is cross-platform, just move your new DB to the Mac.

If your DB is as simple as I suspect, you might be able to use one of the many templates supplied with FMP.
