Hey everybody,

Not sure if this is the right place, so feel free to move it where it belongs.

We have a customer with a filemaker 8.5 solution that has a relationship to one of our databases to push data into our system. the script works.... some of the time

What I have figured out is that when they open their system and FM tries to connect to our system, it prompts them for a username and a password. I added their usernames and passwords to our system and that solved the problem temporarily.

Now what is happening is that they are changing their passwords to their system, and not letting me know. So when they get prompted for a username and password... they hit cancel.

So now when the script runs to push data, there is no file on the other end to recieve it.

Is there any way that I can make it always open our file with a certain username and password?

I am also open to other sugestions....
