Filemaker is a relational database software application originally developed for Macintosh but later released for Windows in 1992. Owned and developed by Claris, an Apple Computer subsidiary.[1]

File Information

Early versions of the file format did not have an extension, as most Macintosh Classic files do not. Early Filemaker files have a string at offset 525 which can help in identification.

  • All files since FileMaker Pro 12 have extension .fmp12.[2]
  • FileMaker Pro 11, 10, 9, 8 and 7 can be opened directly in current software.
  • FileMaker Pro 6, 5, 4, or 3 files will need to be converted to FileMaker Pro 11 before they can be converted to the .fmp12 file format.[3]
  • FileMaker Pro 2 or FileMaker Pro 1, must be convert to version 6 before they can be converted to 11.[4]
