Missing DDR file
Recently downloaded and installed FileMakerPro16 Advanced on my Windows 7 computer. Download and install seemed to go OK.
I was able to open a FileMaker 10 file (.fp7) then save as (.fmp12), but when I tried to run a 'Data Design Report' I get an error:
"The file 'DDR' could not be found and is required to complete this operation."
How do I get or create a DDR file?

I get the same result leaving the Automatically Open box unchecked.
Is it possible that something is missing from Windows7 instead of FMP16 advanced ?

Dragging the DDR folder into Extensions\English did the trick. Thanks.
All the other languages are also missing the folder. I don't expect to use them. Will this folder work for all languages or is it language specific ? Just curios.

The DDR file was missing in the download installation folder.
The drag and drop worked.
Help was clear and responsive.

Try creating the DDR again, saving it to the Desktop and leaving the Automatically Open option unchecked. Look for it on the Desktop and see if you can open it then (it defaults to HTML format unless you select XML and should open in your default browser)
