    best way to transfer data to another layout

    Hello, I think you want this: Table of distributors, which it sounds like you already have. Source of looked-up information Table of distributor-product links, which connect distributors to products and contains information about that distributors ability to deliver product, i.e., lead time and...

    Converting from .fp7 to fp.5 format URGENT!!!

    New Millenium Communications makes a product called MDM that will allow you to analyze the FM7 solution, you could have that open while creating all the same fields/files in FM5. Then export/import data. It's the only way that I know to do this, as others pointed out, there's no backwards...

    macs on LAN disconnect

    Here's the one thing I have to offer: if that Linksys offers a configuration option to turn off the built-in firewall, that will probably help your situation. I had a similar problem with only three computers on a home network, but using iTunes to share a music library was really frustrating...

    Problem on MAC OS 9.1 with Epson Perfection 1250 Scanner

    Well, I do believe there are some significant changes in 9.2 in regards to USB. Any reason not to update your user to OS 9.2.2? If there isn't a reason to stay on 9.1, then do the update. Please post if that fixes it. Thanks and good luck.

    Photoshop opens Excel worksheet??

    http://helpdesk.princeton.edu/kb/display.plx?id=3912 The above link references an 'Easy Open' control panel, which I don't recall. I would try File Exchange or PC Exchange control panel, because it should give you control over the link between file type and application. Actually, rebuilding...

    Photoshop opens Excel worksheet??

    Been a long time since I used OS 9, but I believe you want to rebuild the desktop file. Reboot the mac, hold down the apple and option keys during startup until it asks you if you want to rebuild the desktop file. Click the affirmative. If that doesn't get it, I think you may need to use the...

    Sending AOL emails through Entourage/Groupwise

    Okay, let's clarify a few points. 1) Using Mac OS X. (Using 10.2 or 10.3? You stated 10.0, but I don't think that is correct) 2) Groupwise 6 for mail server 3) Entourage (X? 2004?) or Apple Mail for email. Both? Each client uses both? Some clients use one, some the other? 4) The problem is...

    Sending AOL emails through Entourage/Groupwise

    Do they bounce? i.e., Do you get a message from AOL mail servers that says, 'your message did not reach blah blah blah'? Or do they just drop into a black hole? From your yahoo or hotmail account, can you send email to the same target AOL addresses? Is it possible the AOL recipients are...

    Setting Up Apple on Microsoft Domain with Entourage

    Okay, so first things first. For one user on the powerbook, accessing an SMB server and an Exchange server, I would not deal with Active Directory integration. I wouldn't have even installed the 'Services for Macintosh' stuff on the Windows server, I don't think. Let's break this into three...

    Recover the lock icon on keychain windows

    Got it. That is the ToolBar. Try this: in Keychain Access, go under the 'View' menu, select 'Customize Toolbar...' A 'sheet' will slide down from the bottom edge of the toolbar showing you all the different widgets available for the toolbar. Grab the collection towards the bottom, under the...

    Recover the lock icon on keychain windows

    Can you give a little more details? I think you might be satisfied with this: open KeyChain Access (in your Utilities folder), under the 'View' menu, select 'Show Status in Menu Bar'. 'Menu Bar', by the way, is the more correct term for the strip of stuff across the top of the entire screen...

    Filemaker Server

    http://www.filemaker.com/products/fms_overview.html The key advantages are scheduled backups, centralized administration, better 'performance', at least everywhere I've seen people make the switch and remote administration to start/stop sharing files. Are your people in the database more than...

    Please help... This relationship doesn't work!

    Looks like we crossed paths on posting. Congrats on fixing the problem. Could you clarify how you've defined the secondary key field (Fullname in Invoices, I believe) just so I understand what the resolution was? Thank you.

    Please help... This relationship doesn't work!

    Well, now, isn't that interesting. Okay, let's go a little further. First, I realized that I gave an ambiguous suggestion earlier. I mean to make sure indexing can be enabled for the calculation fields on each side of the relationship, i.e., the FullName field can be indexed. If that field on...

    Please help... This relationship doesn't work!

    Hello machtenx, Here's what i would try, first thing. Go to define fields and turn on indexing for each of these fields. You should get an error message when you try this that may provide more insight into the issue. Also, make sure both fields are evaluating to the same type of field, Text...

    Determining latest payment entry

    JeanW, which two fields would you use in a self-join? I'm sorry to be dense, I just couldn't work out how that would help in this situation. Jimb51, you listed a series of fields (Company/LastPayment, etc..) as your portal. You mean these are the fields you are displaying in the portal, right...

    How to Force User Disconnect?

    I notice its been awhile since you posted this. If you've found an answer on your own, would you mind posting the outline of the fix for other users? In case you haven't got a solution, here's my thought: Use Applescript and remote apple events, send 'Quit' to the application that is hosting...

    Determining latest payment entry

    Well, this may not do what you need, but you can sort a portal of related records. Would it be possible to construct a one-row portal and sort by date, descending? It sounds like this is the sole purpose of this display area, so you aren't likely to want to sort it any other way. Maybe I'm wrong...
