Hi Group,

Would anybody know where I can find the Help File on my hard disk :

FMP v 8.5 Advanced
Mac
English Version

Thanks a bunch,

Geo.

Well, I'm not on a mac, but maybe this will get you going in the right
direction...

Mine is at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\FileMaker\FileMaker Pro 8.5 Advanced\English
Extras\Help\fmpro.chm

Maybe yours is similar in location/name. I made a shortcut to mine in
my quick launcher - opening it through FMP would crash my open
database about 25% of the time. Opening it via shortcut has never
crashed or locked up the program for me.

Thanks Ingo but I have no "Package" nor do I have "Contents" & there
is no "xxx.Iproj in the FMP 8.5 Advanced folder.

Any other ideas ?

I really need to find this thing.

Thanks again.

.... and thanks to "The Voices" - I'll remember the tip !

Ingo was right ! Thanks to him.

Go in the folder : FileMaker Pro 8.5 (Advanced)
Control-Click on the program : FileMaker Pro (Advanced)
In the Contextual Menu which appears, select : Show Package Contents
Open then the folder : Contents
then the folder : Resources
then the folder : English.lproj (or any other language)
and finally the folder : FileMaker Pro 8 Help

There you will find, not 270 but 1200 .html files !

Thanks, H. Pierre Robin, I found it. Now for my next question, how can
I "extract" that & send it to a friend using FMP in French ?

As regards "extracting" for sending, it is quite simple : drag the needed
files into the Attachment area of your e-mail program, and go !

As regards having the French version, I'm surprised because I thought I
would simply find it in the French.lproj folder, but it isn't, as well
for example the Dutch version is missing from the Dutch.lproj folder.
Is it a matter of the way I installed FMP, or of the FMP box I purchased ?
