5-4 FileMaker Pro SDK Developer’s Guide
To create Win32s diskettes:
1. Format three 1.4 MB diskettes and name them Disk1, Disk2, and
Disk3.
2. Drag the contents of the corresponding folders from the CD-ROM
onto the floppy disks.
Important Disk names, filenames and paths cannot be modified or the
Win32s installation will fail.
Additional files required for networked solutions
If your end-users will be using your bundled solution over a network,
you’ll need to distribute additional files from the CD-ROM. If you’re
not sure which network your end-users are using, distribute the entire
contents of the Runtime Files folder on the Macintosh and/or the
RUNTIME folder on Windows. Place the two folders in the solution file
folder. See “Sample Macintosh and Windows solution folders” on
page 5-2. When the solution is opened, the end-user will need to choose
the appropriate network in Preferences.
If your end-users are sharing files on an AppleTalk network on the
Macintosh:
The networking software comes with the operating system. You need to
distribute the AppleTalk Network file inside the FileMaker Extensions
folder.
If your end-users are sharing files using MacIPX on the Macintosh:
You’ll need to distribute the MacIPX control panel and extensions. Be
sure to distribute the Control Panels folder and the Extensions folder
inside Files for System Folder. When the runtime application is first
opened, these files will be moved into the end-user’s System Folder. You
also need to distribute the MacIPX Network file inside the FileMaker
Extensions folder.
If your end-users are sharing files using MacTCP/IP with the Mac OS:
They’ll need to have MacTCP 2.0.6 installed, which is included in
version 7.5 of the operating system. If they don’t have MacTCP 2.0.6,
they can use Open Transport 1.0.8 or later, which is available with the
newest version of the operating system. You also need to distribute the
TCP/IP Network file inside the FileMaker Extensions folder.
