1. FileMaker formats

I need to make an include file to read Claris' FileMaker Pro 3.0 database =
files.  I'm not sure yet if the program will display, allow modification =
of, or merely convert these files; but I need to be able to read them =
nonetheless.
I've looked at Wotsit, but they don't have any Claris formats.  Any help =
would be appreciated.

Mike all you have to do is export the database to a format that you have
information on. Export the database records to data base DBF format and
then you can process them with euphoria.

Bernie Ryan's suggestion to export them is the only one that is any way
practical. I suggest comma delimited format, which you can filter with a
little Eu program to build readable data.

The native FMPro format will be close to impossible to use, afaik.
