October 31, 200124 yr Newbies I used to be able to change field settings on a shared database (fm server 5 on win server). After I switched computers I can't find out how to install my PC so that I can do this. I need to turn off the server, change the field settings and the start the server again. What do I need to do?
October 31, 200124 yr The server needs to be running FM Server 5.0 or later to be able to define fields in a file while it is hosted (as long as there are no other guests using it).
November 1, 200124 yr If you're using a version 5.0 client, make sure to update it to 5.0v3. The ability to edit fields in files hosted on FMServer was added in the v3 update to 5.0. You can find the updater at: http://www.filemaker.com/support/updaters.html#FileMaker5 HTH
