Data Import III: Import whole Tables

31/01/2013 MS: Ask FileMaker: It seems that you can only import whole Tables – including Layouts, Fields, Field Labels, ‎Lookups, Calculations, Value Lists, Summary, Scripts and Field Types - (what in FMP 6 ‎was called Files) into a File, using FMP Developer Advanced – not with the Single User ‎or Server versions.  
A. Apparently, for this extended capability you will need to buy FileMaker Pro Advanced Developer version.

RFC #: 171
There are contacts that I remember having entered contact details in the old FileMaker, but I cannot find them now in the new File.  
Any idea how this happened? 
Example: ProTx (it is even possible that I didn’t enter their details after all, but please check it out).

Incremental Numbers

18/02/2013 MS: 

Question: How to create a Field Definition, where the content is a unique ID, made up of the Text: “RFC” and a Serial Number that increases with every Record in increments of “1”?  

Answer: In Define Fields, choose Auto-Enter and in the Data Box, enter the first Value (Numeric, Alphabetic or Alphanumeric), then set the increment rule in the “Increment By” Field in the same Combox.
