5.0 to 7.0 Conversion issues

[ed_olimpio]

I am running Mac OS X Server with FM Server 7 advanced. I am running FM pro on my client machines, which are Win XP.

i have done everything by the book and I can connect from my Dell COmputer to the server and open the Database. BUt when I try to make any modications (layouts,screens, etc...) it says "THIS DATABASE IS NOT MODIFIABLE".

On my computer I can modify everything with the same database. When I open if on the server it says I can't modify this database. I can even type in fields it is so bad.

Please help - thanks!

Reset the permissions on the database files (and any subfolders within the Databases folder) to give the fmsadmin group Read and Write access.

does that mean i change permission on each file individually. Or is there some master command you are speaking of that covers all databases within filemaker server 7.

I assume you mean I have to make these changes from within CLIENT 7.0, not server 7.0. That is where I am confused

do you mean FMSADMIN Program? OR do you mena there is actually a folder FMSadmin that I need to find?
