Separate Data File

[Chris Christou]

I am planning to build a new solution and was wondering if their are any features, tips or tricks in Filemaker 7 or 8 that will allow me build a single multiple table database solution in one file (front end) and a separate database file for all the data (back end). This way when I release upgrades only the front end solution file needs will need to be replaced. I sure this can be done with relationships but this solution will be a big one and consist of approx 30-40 tables and i equaly do not want to make the development too complex.

If you go back in this topic far enough you will find a set of sample files for a many to many relationship that I posted.
