Help!! I've built a database which includes a Quicktime movie on each record. Works fine onthe Mac version but when I try to copy the windows version to anything FM seems to loose the links to the movies leaving only a poster frame. The Quicktimes are cross platform with the correct windows extension and all the movies, the runtime solution etc are in the same file. I've even relinked all 400 movies

on a windows platform and it works fine - until I try and copy for distribution - can any of you wonderful people save my *** with

an answer???

Let's start with the obvious...

The pathway from the movie to the DB must be EXACTLY the same on the new machine in order for the link to work. Ideally, the movies would be in the same folder as the database; second best is a "movies" folder in the same folder as the database, with all the movies inside that folder. Anything else is taking chances.

If your setup is as described above, we'll try some other ideas.

HTH,

Dan
