Ted Papas Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Hi there, I need your help in this since I couldn't find a clear answer... I have developed a database application in FM8 Advanced and I need to create another application with PowerBasic DLL that will need to draw last_name and first_name data from the records in the Filemaker database. Is this possible? Please my whole project depends on this, reply and let me know! Best Regards Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wim Decorte Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 No idea what PowerBasic DLL supports, but your options are: - if the PowerBasic app is running on the same machine as the FM file: * use ODBC or JDBC, setting up the FM file as a data source * use PowerBasic to trigger a FM script that exports your records to a file and PowerBasic reads it from there - if PowerBasic is not running on the same machine as the FM file then you will need to use FileMaker Server Advanced. Then you can use XML, ODBC/JDBC, and the XML derived classes for PHP or .NET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
