Find requests return 0 on calculation fields based on relationship

I converted my .fp5 files to .fp7 and I am hosting these files on FM Server 7.

Does anybody know why my find requests return zero results when i am trying to find data in a calculated field based on a relationship?

When I move all dbs to my harddisc and open the files locally (FM pro 8) all is good...

Any help very much appreciated!

I don't think we have enough information to help you out here. Can you post some more info on the relationships and the find script?

Sorry, been gone for some time.

Figured it out:

Seems FM7/8 needs at least one relative file reference: "fmnet:/*/myfile". I removed all references but the absolute ones: "file:/*/myfile" just for the sake of being orderly. This is why filemaker DID show the data from the relationship but DID NOT allow find requests.

Thanx anyhow...
