Product Description:

FmPro Migrator quickly and accurately migrates FileMaker Pro database structure and data to Oracle and MySQL.
FmPro Migrator Lite Edition:
-- Migrates CSV files to Oracle and MySQL
-- Migrates TAB delimited files to Oracle
-- Documents FileMaker Pro database structure

FmPro Migrator STD Edition adds the following features:
-- Migration of large text fields and image data to Oracle
-- Processing of up to 50 open FileMaker Pro databases
-- Supports FileMaker Pro stand-alone solutions files

FmPro Migrator Lite Edition utilizes CSV or TAB delimited export files to migrate relatively small datasets from FileMaker Pro. The Lite edition is perfect for FileMaker developers who may just want to generate database structure reports for a few existing FileMaker Pro databases.

FmPro Migrator STD Edition features: FileMaker Pro database fields containing more than 4000 characters of text are migrated to Oracle CLOB columns - supporting up to 4 billion characters per field. FileMaker Pro database fields containing more than 255 characters of text are migrated to MySQL TEXT columns - supporting up to 65000 characters per record. Image data within FileMaker Pro container fields is migrated directly to Oracle BLOB or MySQL LongBLOB columns through a network connection. No manual data entry is required for processing either of these specialized datatypes.
Migration scripts and database structure reports may also be generated for stand-alone FileMaker Pro solution applications compiled for the MacOS platform.
Migration scripts and documentation files are generated for all open FileMaker Pro database files. This feature can be utilized to quickly produce documentation of database structure for large numbers of existing FileMaker Pro solutions.
FmPro Migrator utilizes specialized features of MacOS X, therefore it is available only for MacOS X. A free demo version of FmPro Migrator may be downloaded from http://www.dotcomsolutionsinc.net/downloads/index.html

What's new in this version:

  • Added support for migration of Filemaker Pro files to MySQL databases.
  • Improved support for migrating JPEG image data from FileMaker Pro container fields to Oracle and MySQL databases from both Windows and MacOS X hosted FileMaker Pro databases.
  • Added an additional generic report file which is generated during both Oracle and MySQL database migrations. This report file is optimized for situations in which FmPro Migrator is being used primarily to extract info from FileMaker Pro for documentation purposes.

FmPro Migrator ReviewDashed hopes - Version: 3.57, 11/4/2005 08:06AM PST

Recent job assignments require that I interface with MS Access, and I had high hopes that FmPro Migrator--which claims that it will migrate Access files into FileMaker 7--would solve my dilemma. No such luck. I accomplished nothing, after several frustrating and wasted hours walking through the 'help' instructions. Maybe .com solution's developers might accomplish the task; I couldn't. FmPro Migrator doesn't live up to it's claims.

FMPro Migrator is unusuable on a Mac. First the help is unreadable unless a copy-paste in TextEdit for example; second one reads on that help the necessity to go through VirtualPC for translating a database. It seems taht the producer ignore the fact that an ODBC driver comes with FileMaker.

Tried the demo to go from FM 6 to FM 7. All I got was a bunch of text and blank icon files on my desktop. Some appeared and then disappeared when I clicked on them.

Nothing made sense, tried to follow steps, but could not get it to do anything remotely like I thought it would make a FM 7 file out of my FM 6 related DB files.

i know it was a demo, but what was it demoing? It certainly did not give me even a demo version of a FM 7 file with even a small amount of stuff moved over.
