Export from FAST
The first step is to export owners and dogs out of the FAST database and import
them into ConvertFAST. This is a one-time process. After importing them into
ConvertFAST, the data will be saved in a form that does not require FileMaker.
- With your FAST database open, click the "Edit/Add Owners" button on the main screen.
Make sure all records are selected - the "Show All Records" menu should be disabled.
If it's not, click that menu to select all owners.
- Next, export those records by selecting the "File -> Export" option
- This will take you to the "Export Records to File" dialog.
Select a name and location - and make sure you select "XML FIles" as the file type.
- Set the options in the next dialog to look like:
- The final step is to select the data to export.
Make sure you set the data to "Current Table (Owner)".
And the fields to export should be all - if this has never been done, you may
not have the correct fields listed. In that case, just click "Clear All" and
then "Move All". Finally, click "Export".
- Repeat this process for Dogs. Obviously, in the last step, the Current Table is "Dogs", not "Owners".
Import to ConvertFAST
- Start ConvertFAST. Under the File menu, select "Import...".
- In the following dialog, select the 2 files you just exported above.
- Save this file
The next time you start ConvertFAST, it will automatically reopen the last file.
To move the data to a different machine, just copy the ".cfast" file you created
(and the ConvertFAST executable!) to the new machine.
When you start ConvertFAST, just open that cfast file.
