Hi there,

I'm looking for any tips out there to secure a run-time database I've created in the old fmp 5.5 version of FileMaker.

I have used the standard password protection but want to know if there is anything else I should/could consider? eg. passwords that expire or perhaps have the program look for a certain file to verify?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

um... the best way to protect your runtimes (structure) is to remove access to fields/scripts. However these demos would be unmodifiable, so make sure you have a way to export your data.

With any FMP 5 program anyone w/ a credit card and google can peek under the hood unless you use the aforementioned technique.

What are you trying to protect against? Piracy? or Intellectual property?

Thankyou for you quick reply. My run-time is a price calculation program so the data is very sensitive. I want to be confident that I have done all I can to protect it in case it found its way into the wrong hands.
