Recovering Data Lost During Upgrade

[Robert Andrews]

First of all let me say I have never used Filemaker but am experienced in many other database platforms.

I was called in to help a client recover data lost during an upgrade. The data was in a .CTS file. When the upgrade was performed all data was lost so the client manually re-entered data for the past few months.

I was able to recover a version of the data from a backup. We now have data (2001 -> May 2005) in one .CTS file and (March 2005 -> present) in another CTS file (of the same name, eg transact.cts)

I do not have access to a Filemaker IDE and the application has the import menu option greyed out.

is there any way to merge these two files to get all the data into a single file?

Import file from onw file then import from other.
