Connecting to Quickbooks

[DrMonkey]

I have the Quickbooks SDK installed and I have

figured out the XML layout to add an invoice to

quickbooks using the SDK.

How do you tell Filemaker that you are using the

Quickbooks SDK in scriptmaker?

And how type code into the scriptmaker window

instead of using the pre-defined commands?

P.S. I don't want to use the add-in called FileBooks

What does the SDK call for?

Do you post the XML file to disk or post it to a server?

[sbg2]

The SDK calls for a third party program or a user developed program to connect FileMaker and Quickbooks. You can not import the XML directly from the QB interface.

I have been using FileBooks Link for over a year now and would highly reccomend it. However, since the OP has posted twice that they don't want to use it...

This is what I found.

To connect FM to Quickbooks you have to write a FM Plug-in. FM uses the external function to communicate with the Plug-in.

I've only see information on FM Plug-in that are written in C++. Is this the only language that can be used to write a plug-in or can I use VB?
