Update Directions (read all directions first and follow these directions exactly)

•FileMaker Pro needs to be installed on the same computer as FileMaker Server. The network protocol should be set to none to avoid anybody trying to connect to the files during the update process.

•Close data files and stop or quit the FileMaker Service

•Make a backup copy of your old data files in the Special EdNet folder(there should be 35 files .FP5 files). Keep these back ups for an extended period of time in case something didn't transfer properly. Do not leave the backup files in the FileMaker Server folder.

•Rename the following old data files in the Special_EdNet6.5 folder found in the FileMaker Server folder:

IEPemis.fp5 to oldIEPemis.fp5

IEPGoals.fp5 to oldIEPGoals.fp5

IEPTesting.fp5 to oldIEPtesting.fp5

IEPWriter.fp5 to oldIEPWriter.fp5

IEPxtra.fp5 to oldIEPxtra.fp5

mfe.fp5 to oldmfe.fp5

MFEeval.fp5 to oldMFEeval.fp5

MFE_Extra.fp5 to oldMFE_Extra.fp5

Semanage.fp5 to oldSemanage.fp5

Splogin.fp5 to oldSplogin.fp5

UserValue.fp5 to oldUserValue.fp5

•Extract the Update Patch files and move the files (not the folder containing the files) to the Special Ednet folder on the server.

•Open the Spednet6_9 Update.fp5 file and click the Update Button. At no time should you be prompted to find a file or asked to replace a file during the update process. If this happens the update procedure was not followed properly and some data might not have updated properly. If you are prompted to enter a password during the import process use "create"

•After updating is complete, quit FileMaker Pro.

•Delete the Spednet6_9 Update.fp5 file and any renamed files (beginning with old). If there is a file named DS_Store, delete it.

•The Special EdNet folder should have 35 or 36 .fp5 files remaining in it (if you are using the Spedforms file or custom made files, there might be more files). Make sure there is only one set of data files in the FileMaker Server folder.

•Restart the FileMaker Service
