HarryBeaman Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Hello Board! I've built a database that i've been using with no problems for a while; on FMPv9 on a Mac. I've since connected a Mac Mini with FMPv10 onto our network and shared the database. I can open it and navigate to records happily. When i click a button, i get the error message FMP Error -30872 This is a button that should move to a layout, print the layout, then transfer to the previous layout and progress to a New Record. Can anyone tell me what this error is? Thanks, H
