MetadataMagic reads the metadata (all of the information about the layouts, fields, scripts, value lists, relationships, etc.) directly out of your FileMaker files and populates it into an easy to use FileMaker database.
It can process an unlimited number of files (no 50-file limit) and you can navigate through your interrelated metadata with unlimited drill-down and go back capability. It's fast, it's complete, and it's fully compatible with FileMaker Pro 5.0, 5.5, and 6, and can process both FileMaker .FP3 and .FP5 files!
MetadataMagic not only extracts and displays your file references, it lets you fix them too with the File Reference Fixer!
What's New:
First version with a variant (2.0.3J) for the Japanese version of FileMaker Pro. The Japanese variant uses the Osaka font (instead of Verdana) to display your metadata.
Changed the plug-in to tolerate unicode characters in paths to the target files and the string file on Mac OS X 10.2 and up.
Added the Japanese-only functions to the strings file (eg. YearName)
Includes Conversion Issue Database v1.0.5, with some issues revised (see the revision history in the Conversion Issues Database folder for details).
Changed the Conversion Issue Reporting Tool to preserve the Skip checkbox when a complete report is generated.
Fixed a bug that would generate an error of the type "L_LID2A_ptr- valid IDs contain more than 0 bytes".
Fixed a bug that would cause some fields and relationships? used by a Perform Find? Enter Find? Mode? [restore] script step? to be missed when a request included Omit.
Fixed a bug that caused the size of layout parts to be reported incorrectly.
Fixed some help records that referred to buttons that have been removed.
Fixed a couple of cosmetic bugs.
Requirements:
FileMaker Pro/Developer 5-6.
