Developer and Networked Runtime Solutions

What I have gathered from reading in this forum is that my runtime solution can not be bound and work as a client. But can someone explain Filemaker's following statement:

"You can build your own solution with FileMaker Developer 6. If it [is] intended to run as a stand-alone (non-networked) application, you can bind your solution using the Developer Tool and immediately deploy it. However, if a network solution is required, you need to license and install a copy of FileMaker Pro or FileMaker Server on your target machine, and then host your solution from there."

To me this suggests that if I install FileMaker Server I can then host my runtime solution and it will work. Unless, of course, I'm not quite understanding what Filemaker means by "target machine."

Hi,

FileMaker Server CAN host a runtime, but you will need FileMaker Pro Client on each machine that is going to access it.

HTH

RE: "target machine."

It will be the serving machine, the HOST.

And then you need the clients as Andy wrote.
