Thanks for help ! But... He does not find the object. What I have is : - FileMaker Dev 7 opened - One table - one layout - one field (for testing purpose) - I execute the code but he tell me "Object not found" and select the "name" in the code... What's wrong ?

The question is : How to set the value of an FM field from an AppleScript ? I tried : tell app "FileMaker Developer" set cell "test::test" to "Hello World!" end tell but an error occured...

Export FM does...

Ok, the first problem (indeed it's only a problem for VMWare), is that the server must run under Mac OS X platform who's not compatible with VMWare. And, the second think is that I dont think that sort of method would be a "Production" method. It's cool to do some test, and developement test but to have a strong server... But thanks for the idea ! EDIT: So what I was expecting is that there would be a way to synchronise 2 FileMaker 7 Server without a "Sync Station", perhaps with another product than SyncDek. (Or will I suggest them a Feature Request ?) But, I dont know at the moment if the FM 7 Server technologie allow to build such of plugins... Would I need to create this plugin from myself ? (Joke Inside)

I have to synchronise two FileMaker 7 Server. The problem is that where is one of the FileMaler 7 Server, I can't have more than 1 machine, that means that that machine will only run FileMaker 7 Server. One solution is the famous SyncDek who need a 2e computer who run a FileMaker Pro 7 on it. But, like I said, I can't have a 2e machine. Perhaps, that's impossible to do, but if you have any idea, they are welcome !

Ok guys, I understand well that restrictions, so my question is more about "Is Filemaker Pro 6" (not the Unlimited or the Server version) is able to serve correctly a website it will be accessed many and many times, by many users at the same time (not like google, but it can have some peak with 20 users at the same time on the website doing search) . Is Filemaker Pro 6 strong enough ? If not, will it be more realistic if we'll migrate to the unlimited or the unlimited is only differencied by the number of users restriction? Else, need I to migrate to the FM AS 7 ?

(Double post, see next post...)

Hello, I'm using FileMaker 6 (not the Unlimited Version) and I would like to know if it is realistic to use that product with FX.php to make a website that will be browsed by many users (for example, 20 users at the same time, or 50 users at the same time). What do you think about ?

For info, on Windows NT4/2K/XP, to know the ip, there is many options. The one I prefere is : Start -> Run... -> "cmd" (The Command Shell is opening) -> On the command prompt, just type "ipconfig" or "ipconfig /all" and you will see all the informations about your Network cards. On Win 95/98/Me you can do the same (replace "cmd" by "command") or just do a Start -> Run... -> "winipcfg" Note : On Mac OS X, you can also launch the terminal application (easy if it is in the Dock, like mine) and type "ifconfig". Happy to see you resolved your problem...

For the internal IP question, I'm pretty sure that the classes : 192.*.*.* and 10.*.*.* must be used for internal network only. So you are on an internal network. Like DT II said, try to do that on you computer, verify that the computer's they want to access your database are on the same network (10.140.50.*), or if the router is configured to route the packet correctly, then try to ping the computer where the DB is runing on, then if that works, that's a bad news... (No, that just mean that if it work, and you're still cannot access your DB, I don't know how to resolve it..)

Is it possible to use Troi File Plugin with Filemaker 7 :

So, if you would go in this way : You must to export your data as XML file, and perhaps you should convert it with an XSLT file to output a MySQL command file who will be needed to execute MySQL query's to update your MySQL database, even you use phpMyAdmin. I'm not sure that the import function of phpMyAdmin can work with another format than MySQL query's. It's not hard to do, but it could be taken a lot of time...

I'm wondering : Can you set some FileMaker 7 Server Advanced --> WPE to access to 2 FileMaker 7 Server Databases ? Example : 1 machine with Web Server and WPE --> Access to 2 machines with both a FileMaker 7 Server running differents database ?

In fact, I'm actualy using ExportFM for publishing images, but I don't like this solution. However, it works, but for some solutions, it's not easy to find the best way to transfer the images exported to be in the good place for web publishing. I hope that the slowdown page loading would be more optimised with FileMaker 7 Server Advanced...

Why you don't use some ODBC functions to connect to your MySQL host ? In this case, you probably will able to syncronise the two databases. If these solution doesn't work, there are lot of solutions to do such of think, because MySQL query's aren't difficult to undestand.
