Like many others I am moving from 5.5 to 8.5. We did make use of relationships in FM5.5 and now I need to take those related databases and combine them into a single database with multiple tables.

Now I know FM Robot will move the field defs, data, scripts, and all that. What does it do with the layouts, relationships, and file references??

For example let's say I had a simple invoice solution. In FM5.5 you had an Invoice dataabse which had a portal showing records from the Line_Items database. I have 8.5 Advanced so I can easily import the field defs and all that. However, the relationships need to be rebuilt along with all my portals and anywhere I displayed related fields.

Will FM Robot fix the relationships, portals, and file references for me?

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Bryan
