MAC-Filemaker-Word

Featured Replies

Is there anyway to bring word docs into Filemaker on the MAC? I know I can do it on the PC but is there anyway to do it on a MAC.

This problem is really causing me grief with my employees. I love MAC by it's getting harder and harder to sell them on Apple because of stuff like this.

Thanks for any help

Wade

Several ways to do this, depending on the size of the document, and on the versions of FMP and MS Word in use. You can use an AppleScript or try the Troi file plugin.

Could you be a little more specific about how to do this?

I am using FM 5.5 and both MAC's and PeeCee's on the network.

the version of Word is from Office 98

Where can I find this "Troi" plugin

Thanks

Wade

Troi plugins can be found at www.troi.com

Before giving further examples of how you can accomplish your goal, what exactly do you want to do. What is your end result when you "bring word docs" into Filemaker?
