February 18, 2005 - Fremont, CA - .com Solutions Inc. Releases
FmPro Migrator 3.02 Enterprise Edition - New Release for MacOS X
and Windows Adds Drag and Drop Conversion of Access 2003 Database
Files to FileMaker 7.
.com Solutions Inc., a developer of multi-platform database
migration and development tools, has released FmPro Migrator 3.02
with a new Microsoft Access 2003 to FileMaker 7 migration feature
for MacOS X and Windows.
FmPro Migrator 3.02 now employs a new drag and drop user
interface for Access to FileMaker 7 migrations on MacOS X and
Windows, thus simplifying the migration process. Dropping one or
more Access 97, Access 2000 or Access
2003 database files onto FmPro Migrator instantly reads the
metadata from each Access database file and creates the required
FileMaker 7 migration scripts.
FmPro Migrator standardizes and automates FileMaker database
migration procedures including data type matching, field to column
renaming, table creation, FileMaker field size determination and
data transfer for 8 different database servers. Supported databases
include MySQL, Oracle (8, 8i-9i, 10g), Access, SQL Server, Sybase,
DB2, PostgreSQL and FrontBase.
FmPro Migrator New Features and Improvements include:
-- Access 2003 to FileMaker 7 Migration on MacOS X and
Windows - Access 97, Access 2000 and Access 2003 database files can
be dropped onto FmPro Migrator to start the migration process.
FmPro Migrator reads the metadata from each Access database file.
The resulting migration scripts are instantly generated and written
into the user selected output directory.
These scripts still need to be run on Windows (or VirtualPC) in
order to utilize FileMaker 7 and Access ODBC drivers which are
currently only available on Windows.
-- Upsize Microsoft Access to FileMaker 7 - Converting
Access to FileMaker
7 enables developers to take advantage of the enhanced performance
and capabilities of FileMaker 7. FileMaker 7 databases can handle
up to 8TB of data and can include thousands of fields, compared to
the 2Gb file size limit and 255 field limit of Microsoft
Access.
-- Various Maintenance Fixes Included - FmPro Migrator 3.02
also includes a variety of other maintenance fixes to migration
scripts and documentation.
These improvements include the use of FileMaker 7
Username/Password info within generated scripts for all database
migrations along with improvements to the SQL Server
instructions.
-- MacOS X and Windows Compatibility - FmPro Migrator runs
on MacOS X and Windows, thus enabling developers to use their
preferred platform for creating the migration scripts.
