Hi,

Could anyone tell me if it is possible to call up server-based FMP files from an icon on a networked PC rather than having to let users pick a file from the Remote administration?

Many thanks,

Roger

Hi Roger,

Many people including myself use a technique which has become known by the name opener files.

Have a read of this great article by Vaughan - he explains it very well...
