Hi,
I'm having a similar problem, trying to use my Mac laptop as a back-up for
my PC ebase file. We don't have Filemaker Pro, we don't have a zip-drive
and we don't have a CD burner--maybe someday. I sent the ebase file to
myself (to my Powerbook) successfully, but can't open it on the
powerbook. When I click on ebase.exe it says "application that created it
cannot be found". How do I tell my Mac that ebase.exe is, in fact, an
application?
