stevie.at Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I know, an odd question but just to be make this clear: Can FMS7 serve FM8 (or 8.5) clients as they use the same file format (fp7)? When purchasing FM8.5 you probably have to upgrade to FMS8 as well. I understand there's no server 8.5 in the frame or is there? Thanks, Stevie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ender Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Yes, FM Server 7 can host FM8 and FM8.5 clients, BUT: 1. Some new server side functions won't work for the FM8.x clients (can't remember which.) 2. The new date/time search patterns won't work. 3. There are definite speed and stability improvements that make FM Server 8 a worthy investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven H. Blackwell Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Your best bet and most stable configuration is FileMaker Server 8.0v4 or FileMaker Server Advanced 8.0v4 with either FileMaker Pro 8.0v3 or FileMaker Pro 8.5v1 clients.
