In the old version of FIlemaker I had a few tables. Every file is one
table (with a few relations between the tables). I've converted these
tables to fm7. Now I want to place all tables in one database. How
can I do that?
I need this for easy access to all these tables by ODBC (through a
Delphi program)

Greetings,
Kees

I don't remember if FMP 7 could import table structures, but FMP 8.5
can. If you can do that, you can import the table structures into a
single file, set up the relationships between them, import scripts,
value lists and data, and you are done.

if not, you have to build each table in the single FMP7 file, build the
relationships, etc.

There are some white papers on the subject on database conversion and
database migration on the Filemaker web site.

However, I would say that to fully understand and implement the new
filemaker that a total rebuild is in order. I know it is not the answer you
are looiking for. But you will learn all about the new functions in FMP7 and
the solution (probably) will work better.

Keep well, Ursus
