Typical installation
Follow these steps to install the complete FileMaker Pro package on
your Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 system.
To install all the FileMaker Pro files on your hard disk:
1. If you have not already done so, insert the CD-ROM.
Follow the instructions on the previous page.
2. In the FileMaker Pro Installation dialog box, choose Typical.
If you want to install FileMaker Pro in another folder or on another
drive, click the Browse button. If the selected disk doesn’t have
enough space for the files you select, you can leave the installer and
delete existing files to make more room on the disk. If the disk is
write-protected, or isn’t a hard disk, you can choose another drive.
3. Click Next.
The installer tells you if the selected drive doesn’t have enough space
for the components you have chosen to install. If there is enough
space, you see the Network Protocol dialog box.
If you want to share your files over a network, select a protocol. You
can change the network protocol later, without reinstalling the
program. For help in deciding which network protocol to select, see
your network administrator.
4. Click Next.
You see the Personalization dialog box.
5. In the Name box, type your name and press the Tab key.
6. Type your company name, if applicable, and press Tab.
If you don’t have a company name, you can put other information
(like your address) in the box or leave it blank.
