Hi-

Our company has both FM 5 and FM 7 Servers. Is it possible to access FM 5 databases with FM 7 Pro client? I just upgraded my client to 7 and I can't seem to access any of the FM 5 servers. It looks like the method in which you connect to servers has changed since 5.5 Pro so I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

The answer is no.

That's a bummer. So will I have to have both 5.5 Pro and 7 Pro installed on my machine? Can I do this?

Yes, FMP 5.5 and FMP 7 can co-exist on the same computer.
