January 23, 20196 yr Using MS Access 2010. Filemaker 13 Pro, Filemaker 13 Server. I have a MS Access database that that I programmed to do a lot of calculations and creates data. Now I want that data saved in a Filemaker database. I was able to create ODBC connection to the Filemaker database. I am able to view the Filemaker tables/data in MS Access. At 8AM daily I want the Access database to do the calculations, and then insert the data to Filemaker . However every time I try this, the Filemaker Login Screen comes up. And I would have to manually enter the username and password. Is there any way to bypass the log on screen? Thanks in advance.
January 24, 20196 yr Author Well I think I found it. In Access when linking the filemaker tables via ODBC. there is a "Save Password' checkbox. the downside is that this password is not encrypted. However. in my case it shouldn't be a problem. No one but IT will be accessing this access database.
