I've read on line at Filmaker.com that those who have FMpro v2.1 can get an up grade to FMpro v3 which is y2k ok. But when I called their 800# all the gal could tell me was I couldn't get the full version of FMpro v3,only some upgrades. She didn't know what upgrades ment, v2.1 to v3 or for v3 only? I don't want to shell out the bucks for FMpro v5 until I play around with what I already have. FMpro v2 works and I don't see any y2k problems ahead unless I'm wrong. Anyway how long will FMpro v5 be good before. I'm upgrade poor as it is.

Thanks for any help.

What she means is that FM Inc. doesn't sell old versions (except for additional seats to those that have site licenses). You can download "updates" for old versions (from 3.0v1 to 3.0v5), but not "upgrades" (2.1 to 3.0). FM 2.1 DOES have Y2K problems! On the Mac you'll need to set the Time & Date control panel to "show century" to avoid the problem. I don't know how it behaves on the PC. The only way to find a copy of FM 3.0 is to buy one on ebay (I just looked and saw a few). -bd

Thanks bd,

I had the gal I talked said she had a Fmpro3.0 upgrade CD so I took a chance and order it for $6.95 and got it today. Guess what? It upgraded my FMpro 2.1 to 3.5 and from there to 3.6. Soooo It looks like I'm in good shape for now.

Again thanks for the help.

That's good! I wasn't aware that FMI provided any such upgrades. -bd
