I have been advised that if I want to share data and automate an export to another ODBC client application we will need filemaker server. Is this so?

This may seem simple, I hope it is... I have a database with two tables contained within. I am trying to import data to the second of the two table (within the same database), however the import facility seems to only allow imports to the first table created! Anyone with any bright ideas?

Robert Just wanted to drop a quick note and thank you for your tip.. way back in Jan... worked a treat! Thanks Michelle

I am a newbie to forums and relatively new to FM. I seem to be suffering a recurring FM issue and need some advice. I have a "people" database containing names and address info. Not surprisingly I have some records of people who have the same name, but obviously different addresses. My problem is, when I view the list of people via a pop-list in a portal in another database it only displays one occurence of an individuals name, even though there could be 2 or 3 people with the same name. How do I get around this this...? Each person has their own unique ID, but this seems to make little difference. My only solution so far is to differentiate names by adding a "." somewhere in the field. i.e. Mark Jones Mark.Jones Mark Jones. Am I missing something obvious?
