Jarvis Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I have Server 7 on a dedicated Imac G5. Will Server 7 drive Filemaker 8 and allow me to make use of tabbed layouts? My two client stations are: Mac G4 & Imac G5. Thanks, Jarvis
Reed Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Yes you can use tabs with the FM8 client and FM7 server. And you only have to ask once :
Jarvis Posted December 13, 2005 Author Posted December 13, 2005 Reed, Thanks for heads up about the double post. I initally couldn't see my post, so I thought it didn't take. I'm glad to hear that I can host FM8 on Server 7. If this is the case, why would I choose to upgrade to Server 8? Jarvis
Reed Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Functions that evaluate on the server (new calculation functions) and certain new types of queries (the new date search patterns) won't work without server 8.
