December 17, 200520 yr Ok here's one more... How can I make a runtime executable and install it into a 3 PC network (with static IPs for each PC ie. 192.168.1.2 etc..) and have the database file (just one USR file) to be shared by all... How do I tell the created executable file that the database file is to be found at 192.168.1.2/subfolder/etc ?! I did turn on the Network Sharing on the file. I'm pretty sure that from inside the Filemaker environment all you do is use the Open Remote feature, but in the runtime?! Please help!!!
December 17, 200520 yr AFAIK runtime solutions are single user only. They can be shared out using FMServer (in .USR "mode") - but only as single user. Also no plug-ins or IWP. Have a look at the FMP developer docs - especially the differences between "bound" and "native" FMP files.
