Yes, that's exactly what the two products are designed for. You can
develop in Pro as well, but you're missing a lot of tools that Advanced

database created in FileMaker Pro Advanced 8 to be able to be opened in
Filemaker Pro 4 ... but "same" doesn't have to be exactly the same. It
gets a little confused, but some versions of FileMaker Pro use the same
basic format, but the slightly older version won't be able to use all the

I meant to say that FileMaker Pro and FileMaker Pro Advanced are the same
application. The only difference is that the Advanced version has some
extra tools (largely unnecessary) for developers - you can happily create
