[Macpartners] Filemaker 5.5>7 migration

[Kerem B Limon]

My officemate handled our HQ databases' transition from 5.5/6 to 7, as well as
the client migration. He'd possibly be able to comment, though I don't know how
comparable in size/complexity your database is (just the file size isn't much
info).

If you like, I'll get your contact info to him and you guys can talk.

> We are running a modestly-sized (236 MB) relational database in 
> FileMaker 5.5 on Mac OS X.3. We have 12 users running FM 5.5 Pro that 
> interact with it constantly. We're finally biting the bullet and 
> migrating to FileMaker 7, with the help of an outside consultant. 
> We've been made aware of the issues and challenges. Has anyone at MIT 
> made such a migration, and can anyone give us a few key features of 
> their experience? Thanks!
