Peter Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 My uncle has got FM on his old Mac and would like to copy some files for me. I'm working on a WIN version of FM and would like to know if there is any chance to use his files (...and how he should save it or how I can call it up!?) Any ideas? would be glad of an answer! Thanks, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairyjim Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 If you mean you wish to use his database solutions then either put the extension .fp3 (For filemaker 4.x)or .fp5 (for filemaker 5.x) after each file name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted January 19, 2002 Author Share Posted January 19, 2002 thanks for your reply ! but I never worked on a MAC (although they are said to be better...!) and on my pentium I can't even read a floppy that was formatted on a MAC... greetings, Peter :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 Peter, better way is to insert PC floppy to Mac. Also for PC are utilities for reading and writing Mac disks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli Posted January 20, 2002 Share Posted January 20, 2002 Hey Peter, you are just around the corner, I can be with you tomorrow Provided Austrians will not block the border crossing because of this stupid atomic power station build by Czech idiots with international idiots’ help.

Peter Posted January 20, 2002 Author Share Posted January 20, 2002 Hey Anatoli, where are you living? In the Czech Republic ? Yeah, you're right with that power plant... Greetings, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli Posted January 21, 2002 Share Posted January 21, 2002 I am sorry to change subject. If that will go off, we all will be affected! Russian reactor with Westinghouse technology! And our politicians are saying it is safe! Did the PC floppy work in Mac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted January 22, 2002 Author Share Posted January 22, 2002 I didn't yet try it.. :rolleyes: hope it will work! Seeyou, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
