5. FRxRpts.F32- Default spec set database.
6. FRxSys32.mdb- FRx System database - registration information, company information for companies entered within FRx, users and groups created within FRx, company and component security, font types created within FRx, specification set records, international formats created within FRx. Contains system information for FRx. REQUIRED
7. *.G32 Files- GL Index files - one file is created for each company to store basic company information. Required, but created as needed.
8. Matrix2.pmm- Feature matrix file. REQUIRED
9. System.cfg- System preferences and settings file. REQUIRED.

Additional Notes:

• When FRx is installed as a Network installation (also known as a Thin or Compact client), one SysData directory, located on the network, is created. This directory contains all of the files listed above.
• When FRx is installed as a Fat client with a shared network SysData, two SysData directories are created. One SysData directory is created on the network; this directory contains the FRxSys32.mdb, Matrix2.pmm, System.cfg, and all .F32 and .G32 files. The second SysData directory is created on the local client machine under the FRx directory; this directory contains the ActSys32.mdb, and all .TPL files. These files MUST be located in the appropriate SysData directory for FRx to function properly.
• It is possible for .F32 files to be contained in a different directory, outside of the SysData directory. Spec set locations can be configured from within the FRx Designer. In this scenario, the SysData directory does not need to contain any .F32 files.
