Apply FileMaker Pro 4.0v2 Updater

Databases developed by Ag IT Computer Unit (ex: YDEP, Show Program, etc.) will be maintained in FileMaker Pro 4 for the forseeable future. If you purchase new copies of FileMaker for your office, buy FileMaker Pro v9 because it is the current version. You can then install FMP 4 on these computers and apply both the 4.0v2 and 4.0v3 updaters.

NOTE: FileMaker Pro 4.0v2 includes a bug fix that caused FileMaker Pro 4.0v1 to crash when printed multi-page reports or over 100 mailing labels. College of Ag Science offices using Mailing List 4.1 software SHOULD install this upgrade as soon as possible to avoid this problem.
