July 12, 200223 yr Hello! I have successfully setup a FM Server 5.5 which my co-workers in the office can access FMP DB using FMP 5.x in a workgroup environent. Now, I am interested on how can I share this FMP DB using a web browser? and on the internet? I understand base on the reading of other post on this forum.. u need to have a FMP 5.x unlimited with DB file open. Is there a way that I don't need to open the DB file using FMP 5.x unlimited but rather as a windows service running in a background similar to FMP Server is doing? If this is not possible? how can I automatically start a DB file using FMP 5.x unlimited without log-in to a Windows 2000 Server Edition. I am planning to to put the FMP 5.x unlimited on a Windows 2000 Server Edition system and it would be helpful that I could run FMP 5.x unlimited and open the necessary DB file to be shared to the internet without log-in to Windows 2000 SE. TY ritchie
