newtm Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I have separated into a UI and Data File, and it works great! One of the goals is to permit upgrading my solution without my users having to import data. So let's say I need to add a field to the DB. I can't add it to the UI. How do I add it to the Data file without my user losing his data? Does this also work with a stand-alone solution? Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mark Osborne Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 The separation of interface and data is not perfect in FileMaker 7 and 8. While you can easily add a layout or button to your interface file without updating the data file, some additions, like a field, require you to update the data file.
