Exporting data when "Export" option is greyed out

Featured Replies

I'm trying to get the data out of a database to which I do not have the password to access Full Privileges (it was installed nearly a decade ago and has since been lost). "Export", "Print", "Save Copy", and the "View As" options are inaccessible, among others. Short of copying and pasting the data line by line (there doesn't seem to be a way to "select all") I don't currently see a way of getting the data out.

 

Does anyone know alternative ways of exporting data in Filemaker or being able to bypass/reset the password? I'm using Filemaker 6.0v4. Any help would be appreciated!

I think you're toast on this one. There currently is no way to recover a lost password on an FM file. However, you seem to have some access to the file. What privileges do you have?

This need comes up from time to time. FileMaker inc. use to provide a service for about 100 for the earlier versions, I would contact them and see if they still do this. Also there use to be some File Crackers available, do a search for that in Google.
