You can search for "01" by clicking the Find button on the Data Entry
screen, entering "01" (without the quotes) and clicking Find on the left
side of the screen. This will pull up all records that have the value
of 01 in that field. More complex finds can be done using multi-layer
finds (see the New Find Request script in the Filemaker menu at the top)
and read about finds in the documentation.
As for upgrading... I wouldn't bother. For 1.03 you'll need Filemaker
5.0 or better. Plus, the upgrade procedure is a little complicated,
particularly for new and novice users.
Good luck,
Carl
