i'm trying to get an id card printing program called idworks to connect to my filemaker db using odbc. the idworks computer operates on windows xp pro. i'm using the odbc drivers that were installed with fm6. i'm able to get the idworks design program to recognize the fm db and then link tables and fields. however, when the time comes to actually access the information in production, the program freezes and so does the fm program running on the host computer resulting in a force quit.
any ideas on what may be causing this?
up until now the idworks program has been using a local access db. however, it does provide the option to use a remote odbc data source.
thanks.
