compatibility between windows and Macintosh

I have created a dbase on macintosh (X). One layout (amongst others) displays imported text from EXCeL/word. If this layout is switched (no problem at all on MAC) and the dbase is opend in windows (XP) the programme bombs out. Hence from this layout (quite important to me) no use can be made in windows at all. Any solution???

Hi, CH! FWIW... Admittedly, I am not a hound on such issues but I have not heard of any Mac/Windows FM incompatibilities like that, but maybe I don't understand the issue since I'm not clear on what you meant by displaying imported text from Excel/Word. Of course, I don't have FM7 and don't have access to Windows FM but I'd suggest either trying a fresh test w/a new sample db or changing the default view mode if you're display in table mode.

It's an FMP 6 question. Christoph - what do you mean by "when this layout is switched"? Plain old text in a text field shouldn't crash your system.
