eljefejb Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Hi, It seems to me that one should be able to set up a DSN on a FM8 server, and connect to it from an FMP9 client in order to use the ESS feature of 9. Is that way off base? I set up the DSN on the server, but when I go to "Manage External Data Sources" in my FM9 file, it can't see the DSN. I would have thought that since the server only hosts the file, if you can open it with the ver. 9 client, you should be able to utilize the ESS feature. Any ideas? Thanks, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shadow Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 That's not going to work, there are code changes in server 9 to make ESS work. It is basically acting as a middle-man for the external data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
