import tif files into container matched to record

Goal: Import apx 2,000 Tif files into container fields of existing records.

Given:

Folder with 2,000 tif files named like unique_key.tif

e.g. 01-19-01.tif

all records already contain a field with unique code like 01-19-01 to match on.

Like to hit a script and walk away while this happens if it even takes that long.

Can it be done?

Can you show me how?

I believe we are running fm5.5 on OS X.

Thanks,

Barrett

In order to import an entire directory of file or (images) you need to upgrade to FileMaker 6 or

you could purchase a license of Troi File Plugin. This will give you the tools necessary to facilitate what you are requesting.

I would recommend only importing a reference not the entire picture. (But that totally depends on the nature of your structure and use)
