Run two instances of FileMaker Pro on one Mac
I wonder if you can run a second instance of FileMaker without switching users, much like you can with other applications. For example, to run a second instance of Safari, I'd enter its unix executable command into a Terminal window:
/Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
I don't have FileMaker, so I can't check.

The non-Fast-User method may not work
The actual Hint should work without a problem. Using a trick to execute the same copy of FileMaker twice for the same user will probably cause problems - both will use the same preference file, and you may run into trouble with the temporary files FileMaker creates, since they may overwrite each other. You could thus cause corruption to the files you are working on. I'd advise against trying to do this without switching to another user, as the hint itself recommends.

Why don't you guys just duplicate FileMaker Pro and call the copy(ies) FileMaker 1, 2,3 - remember OS 7,8,9?

Because the standard license agreement says you can only install one copy. |
