Changing the cache size
To change the cache size that FileMaker Pro uses:
1. In FileMaker Pro, choose Preferences from the Edit menu and then
choose Application.
You see the Application Preferences dialog box.
2. Click the Memory tab at the top of the dialog box.
3. Type a number in the Attempt cache size of box.
4. Click Done.
The next time you start FileMaker Pro, the new cache size is used.
Adjusting network software
Depending on the networking protocol you’re using, you may have to
modify settings on the host and/or guest computers.
If you are using the IPX/SPX protocol with Windows 95 or Windows NT To
allow the maximum number of guests (25), your IPX/SPX connections
must be set to 60 or greater. Consider increasing the SPX connections to
60 in the Network control panel if you cannot connect the desired
number of guests. You do not need to modify settings on Windows NT.
