Windows NT, and Mac OS 8.0. If you’re using Mac OS system 7.6.1 or

Installing the ODBC drivers
A 30-day evaluation copy of the INTERSOLV ODBC drivers is included
in the ODBC folder in the FileMaker Pro 4.1 folder:
Windows:
C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Pro 4.1\ODBC\ODBC Installer
Mac OS:
Mac HD:FileMaker Pro 4.1:ODBC:ODBC Installer
Note If you already have ODBC drivers installed, you can use them to
import ODBC data. Choose Import/Export from the File menu, Import
Records, and then choose the ODBC file format.
To work through the ODBC import examples in this chapter, install the
trial Text driver. Be sure you can reinstall your original drivers before
replacing them with the INTERSOLV evaluation drivers.
Important The ODBC drivers are the link between FileMaker Pro and
ODBC-compatible data sources. FileMaker, Inc. cannot guarantee that
third-party ODBC drivers will work correctly in all situations. Some
troubleshooting tips for the INTERSOLV ODBC drivers have been
included in the FileMaker Pro 4.1 Read Me, located on the CD-ROM.
