Insert multi image from disk

[Trudo]

I want to insert in a Filemaker database many images located on a disk. I don't want the images located directly in the FM database. I have to insert about 20 images for each records of the database. I want a single field for the image that can display all the images one by one with a click on a buttom. Can I do this in Filemaker Pro ?

Hi:

Yep. This can be done with FileMaker. Now I bet you are wondering how?

First, I would suggest also getting the Troi File plug-in. Since the images will not be stored in the FM file, this plug-in helps manage them.

Also, since one record will have multiple images, you will have to set up two files and join them with a relationship (one file for main records, another to track the images).

Have fun!
