Copy Accounts & Privileges to another file

[Spiral]

Hi,

If I have four fm7 files and I want to end up with just 1 fm7, how do I import the accounts & privileges? I know how to import the tables, etc...

My privileges go down to the fields and yes, some of my field privileges are set to view/hide on a per user basis for some accounts only.

Please tell me I don't have to set it up for each field/user again? :

Thank you.

You can move the Privilege Sets with FM Robot.

You can recreate Accounts with script steps.

You can't copy passwords because they are not stored in the file.

Are you using FileMaker Server?

Yes, I'm using FileMaker 8 Server

Since you're using Server, you might find that External Server Authentication is a better method for managing Accounts.

The Server External Authentication Tech Brief will prove useful.
