Excel functions crashing FM

Rainy Pass
in Importing & Exporting

Featured Replies

Saving records as Excel crashes FM. When I try to import a file I get an error message: No fields are defined in data source.

None of these problems occur on my lap top (10.4) that has Excel. On my iMac (10.5), FM does not like to interact with excel. I can work around with CVS files fine but, this is not a long term solution. Does anyone know what is causing this? Do I have to instal Excel for the FM functions to operate?

Have you upgraded your 8.5 to 8.5.v2?

FileMaker Pro 8.5v2 and FileMaker Pro 8.5v2 Advanced (compatible with Mac OS X Leopard)
