fm-bonehead Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 Hi everyone, I'm wondering if there are any utilities out there that can help me upgrade my 5.5 database files (about 50, with about 50-100 text fileds in each) into version 7. All my files are very simple - just text fields, no relationships, hardly any scripts. However, I'd like an upgrade tool that can take each of my current files, and turn it into a single file in filemaker 7, with 50 different tables, with all my fields and data intact. Anyone know of such a tool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_2_FM Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 so far I don't see any tool that could do it yet. I think you might have to create the tables in the single file and import the data and layout. (maybe you have to recreate them)... not sure..

mcstar Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 FMrobot from New Millenneium (www.nmci.com) is a tool for taking multiple files and merging them as multiple tables in a single file. However you need the developer version of Filemaker (either 5 or 7) to get started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
