I'm developing a solution where a group of Mac and PC users will be accessing a Mac FM Server. This is no problem...but the issue is that we are storing QuickTimes on a network drive as well, hosted by another Mac.

How can I get both MAc and PC to view the container fields contents without either seeing "the file cannot be found" message. So if I insert a QT on the Mac client, the PC client sees the "the file cannot be found" and vice versa.

I need to be able to change the drive references from, for example MAC...Document Drive/ to PC...F:

Thoughts???

I actually figured a workaround using a Container calculation. So when you add a new QT it adds the mac or win path. Thanks to a call the tech support, container fields can have more than one path embedded. So on Windows if it doesn't understand the mac path, it will go to the next line to find a path it understands. This happens as well on the Mac.

Here's the Auto Enter Calculation for my QuickTime container field (only works when initially adding a new or replacing a movie:

Case(

Abs ( Get ( SystemPlatform ) )=2;

Right (

QuickTime_Container_5; Length (GetAsText ( QuickTime_Container_5) ) - Position ( GetAsText ( QuickTime_Container_5) ; "
