*FileMaker Q & A Forum http://fmoverflow.stackexchange.com/ FileMaker in the Palm of your hand - FileMaker has released a FileMaker Mobile Companion for PalmOS. Users of the best-selling database program can now bi-directionally transfer and synchronize files between their desktop and palmtop computers. FileMaker Mobile allows users to select and load the data they require from the desktop machine onto their PalmOS handheld. The data can then be resynched with the desktop database via Palm HotSync technology. FileMaker Mobile is available for both Windows and MacOS. The Windows system requirements include a Pentium 90 or higher, Windows 95/98/2000 or NT4 (SP3+), 32Mb RAM, a USB or serial port, Palm Desktop 3.01 or later and FileMaker Pro 5.0v3 (English version). The handheld must run PalmOS 3.1 or later, have 2Mb of storage and a HotSync cradle or cable. Simon Aughton - Tuesday 12th December 2000
