Tags: filemaker, filemaker pro server, 7

1.i have a fmp database running on a win sbs server...we are getting a new server and i need to transfer the database to the new server... the one issue  i am foreseeing is that the database links to files on the server in various folders (.doc, xls, tiffs etc) and i dont want them to lose the link when i move the database...how do i transfer everything and keep them connected.

2. is there a way to show where the files linked are located...not one by one but as a list with the full path

3. when a file is being linked if the box to link it isnt checked is there a way to change it to a linked file without deleting and redoingStart Free Trial
