Newbies elico Posted January 17, 2016 Author Newbies Share Posted January 17, 2016 " the application cannot be shared " what does it mean ? Elico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) It means that the runtime solution cannot be accessed by multiple users. Unlike solutions opened in FileMaker Pro, that can be shared peer-to-peer over a network with other FileMaker Pro users, or solutions served by FileMaker Server. One more thing worth mentioning: Edited January 17, 2016 by comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies elico Posted January 17, 2016 Author Newbies Share Posted January 17, 2016 " that can be shared peer-to-peer over a network with other FileMaker Pro users, " Does it mean that each user has to buy its own FM to access that FM app along with others ?

With FileMaker Server, you also have the option to publish your database with WebDirect, allowing users to access it through a browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
