THAIPHUKET Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Someone who still has OS 9 ? PROBLEM= Databank Cummulus 5 was running on OS 9, however read only. Neglected to update. Rep of Cummulus tried to run it on Cummulus 8 / OX, no luck. Mat be a data transfer problem , 110MB to Germany. Purose was filing some 25.000 photos for archiving and locating only. Meaning the actual photo was scanned a very low resolution, This is what I remember , didn't use it for many years but it still worked at least for searches. The structur was simple. Scanner= Fuji FV 10 video scanner, i.e scans only about 50kb/photo Cummulus 5 + FileMaker was used to program, All data were recorded in 1 field only,no other fields were used. Structure was simple file number/ year/ location/ other info like model names the file number was given automatically with each new scan Each category start with a new set of numbers, example FASHION 1000-5000 PERSONAL 5001-7000 NEW YORK 10.000- 15.000 ARCHITECTURE 16.000- 17.000 Work flow= scan new photo, click on NEW YORK, file No 10000-15000 is automatically given, add manually other info, such as model, location , ENTER This way it was very easy to find any given photo with a simple search Now I am looking for someone who is willing to give it a try to get the data bank running again. Read only is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
