41.How do I download the iPhone or iPad version of FMSP?
The iPhone and iPad version of FMSP are all “rolled together” into a single FileMaker file – the same file that is accessed by the desktop copy of FileMaker Pro. All three versions are in a single file. This way, users with different devices can log onto the same database and share data.
42.Did you make some screens designed just for the iPhone or iPad?
We did actually develop some screens specific to these devices. Building an interface for a touchscreen device is somewhat different than for a desktop computer with a mouse.
For the iPhone, we built out screens that allow user to find, view, edit and add contacts to FMSP. Plus, if you click the contact's phone number, it will actually dial the number and make the call on the iPhone.
For the iPad, we took all the screens and functionality of FMSP and duplicated them. Then we weaked these duplicated screens so they have bigger buttons and fields things you need for a touchscreen device.
43.Does FMSP and FileMaker Go on the iPhone work with the camera built into my iPhone?
Unfortunately, no: integration with the iPhone's camera is not supported in this initial release of FileMaker Go.
44.Where did the charts go in FMSP on my iPhone and iPad? Why can't I save as PDF or Print?
• Charting is not yet a supported feature of FileMaker Go. Same for making PDFs and printing.
45.Can Recovery for FileMaker repair my FileMaker Pro database?
• The effective way to find out if a FileMaker Pro database is recoverable is to try the demo version of Recovery for FileMaker on it.
46.What limitations does the demo version of Recovery for FileMaker have?
Demo version recovers limited number of the database rows. The remaining rows will be blank. Full version will restore demo-limited rows as well.
47.I have tried the demo. How do I decide whether to purchase the full version of Recovery for FileMaker?
Evaluating the results of demo recovery can help in making the decision.
48. Why is WSDOT using FileMaker Pro for electronic forms?
In October 1992, the department started researching and testing different software packages to develop and deploy electronic forms department wide. None of the software provided all of the features initially defined. FileMaker Pro (version 2.0) was chosen, providing the most features, flexibility, and usability within the WSDOT IT infrastructure.
49.After successful recovery of the original database a new .DBF file is created. What is the procedure for transferring data from this temporary file to a database?
You should simply import data from the resulting file in .DBF format into a new database.
50.Will FMTouch support the Apple iPad?
