Version 3 / damaged file question

[tony44]

I have a database sitting on an old version of Filemaker 3. My computer crashed and now when trying to open the database it is saying I have a damaged file.

I tried to use the recovery, but then I get a message saying .FP3 does not appear to be a Filemaker Pro 3.0 file. If this is a Filemaker 3.0 file, it must be recovered using the corresponding version of Filemaker.

Just wondering what I can do next?

Thx

Have you tried banging your head on the desk screaming "why didn't I take a backup" ?

Thankfully I have a backup, but I was hoping to be able to fix this one anyway :thumbup:
