FileMaker has done a great job on this.ĭon’t forget that you’ll need to convert all your files and your server (if you’re using server) since FileMaker 12 can’t talk to older versions and FileMaker Server 12 can only host FM12 files. Your files will look exactly the same after conversion if the conversion process isn’t pixel perfect, it is very hard to tell where. Some of this will work out fine, but you’ll want to test newly converted apps before to put them into production. O Older products: SeedCode stuff build before FileMaker 10 and 11 will need to be converted to 11 before it can be converted to 12.

We recommend this technique from Excelisys. FileMaker has evolved since Hierarchy was written and there are now simpler ways to do this.

H Hierarchy: converts great, but we have discontinued the product as it was just way too complex for most folks to modify. S fmSpark: there is a single script step to change in the file fmSpark.fmp12 the script “nav head” sets the variable $_LON and that calc has “.fp7” in it. We have a conversion kit available for download it includes the new file and step by step instructions for making the necessary changes. G GoZync: you’ll need to change a couple of things in your mobile file (the file on your iPhone or iPad) and download a version of the hosted GoZync file. Server 12 installs different Web Publishing components and this will prevent and conflicts. And if you have Zulu installed and are going to upgrade to FileMaker Server 12, then please uninstall Zulu before proceeding. But you’ll need to download a new version of Zulu (a new installer) to install Zulu on your FileMaker 12 server. Z Zulu: the zulu scripts and layouts in your FileMaker file will convert just fine. New – we’ve written a brand new file to take advantage of FileMaker 12. Yes * – you’ll need to change something to get the this working in 12.

Yes – you should be able to convert your existing solution without issues.
