I have a quick question. Well I hope it's quick. I was wondering if anyone has noticed any compatibility problems with Filemaker and Windows XP service pack 2. Espically in an environment with a Filemaker version 5 server and workstations. But I also have people running version 3 and other assorted versions. If this service pack has nothing to do with filemaker that would be wonderful to hear.

I have several environments I am responsible for workstations and I am preparing for an upgrade to xp SP2 and they all have diffrent versions of filemaker because they like their versions and don't want to upgrade. So I deal with versions 3-6. None of my people have version 7 yet but it would be good info to have for other people who'll find this thread. I unfortunately lack the resources to test this in the environments like I know I am supposed to.

Thank you so much for the help! I really hope the service pack has no effect at all on filemaker.

I will report my findings once I am done with the upgrades to xp sp2 planned for next week.

i can't verify that it has nothing to do with FM (but I seriously doubt it would). I have fm server 5 with clients on 5 and 6 and I have not had any problems, can't vouch for older versions.

The roll out to workstations using Filemaker 6 was unevenetful. Everything worked fine and there were no complaints of anything not working.

I think filemaker thank goodness is unaffected by xp sp2. I didn't know why it would be but just in case. Most programs are adversly affected but given my luck I was worried everything would explode :)
