filemaker 2.1

[hale45]

have duplicated my site and seem to also be HALE45.

My request generally is; Can anyone supply me with an ulock code for a genuine copy of filemaker 2.1 given away free some time ago on a magazine. I got the code by phone from Claris UK.I cannot make contact with them now for some reason.

Perhaps you know of more recent free version.

I am not really a miser but funds are not available for a couple of years yet and everthing I do is in relation to family needs. Any info on availabilty for Claris Works newer that 1.0 would be usfull.

Cheers

FileMaker Pro 2.1 is NOT repeat NOT Y2K compliant. FileMaker have not released a patch to make it compliant: FileMaker Pro 3.0v6 is the oldest version of FileMaker Pro that's Y2K compliant.

Unfortunaltely I'd recommend that you forget the trial version, don't bother spending time and energy learning it or developing with it.

Older versions of software can often be found at garage sales and jumble sales for really cheap, and some second hand book stores sometimes have old software but it's usually more expensive -- often overpriced for what it is, but perhaps you could do a trade for some unwanted books. School fund raising events in particular are especially good for a whole heap of stuff.

Phone up your local University and ask the IT manager when their next sale of unwanted equipment is happening.
