Accessing Scripts, define fields...

Hi there,

I am new to FM 8.5. After converting my FM6 databases, I tried to access scripts with no success. When I press the Option key (Mac), the Account Name dialog box opens up. I typed my password and access was denied. I tried several times with no success.

Any help on how to access the programing would be great!

Simple. The user/pass are the same thing as the old passwords.

Hence: if you had a password of 'abcd', then the resulting login is:

U: 'abcd'

P: 'abcd'

Otherwise, I'm pretty sure that the default admin account is

U: 'Admin'

P: ''

There's a file on the filemaker site: http://www.filemaker.com/downloads/pdf/fm7_converting.pdf. This has TONS of answers for the conversion process from the 4-6 line to the 7-9 system.

The first option worked great and thanks for the link. I will enjoy reading that tedious information.
