Filemaker pro

I am not sure if this is the right group, if not, please point me to the
right one - thank you.

I am novice to Filemaker pro familiarizing with filemaker pro 5.5 server and
filemaker pro 6 client.

First of all I would like to know little bit how Filemaker works? Does it
work like client-server architecture or something else?

I have a need to copy database (if you will) from one server to another. How
can I do this. I tried to export data, but it seems I will have to export
each of the fp5 files and then import them. Or is there a way to export the
entire database and then import it.

Or

I can copy the the directory/files from the source server onto object
server. But I don't know how to point to the new server.

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thank you much in advance!

My firm is creating a database that profiles (about 100) companies in various sectors. Each profile is about 10 pages long with perhaps 150 parameters.

I work for a small company just over a year old. I have them sold on the idea of a database for tracking their sales and order entry (plus many other duties). We are going to develop our own database and are trying to decide which software to use. We are windows based, have Access, and a trial version of FMP 8.5. I have used Access for the past few years and would call my skills above intermediate but definitely not expert. I used FMP...

I am a FileMaker developer and have been since Version 5.0... that long. FileMaker 9.0 has promised to hook up to SQL server and MySQL databases. When I hook up I can not upload pictures just text and numbers. There is a web page http://www.frontendsolutions.ca that shows it uploading pictures. Can Access upload pictures to a SQL server database running on the Web? Thank you.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
