Hi,

Is there a way to open a file that is hosted on a server with the FM activeX?

There is a method called "open" in the "Documents" class.

The usage is the following :

fmDocs.Open("myFile.fp7", "accountName", "myPassword")

Here's is what I would like :

Dim fmDocs As FMPRO70Lib.Documents

fmDocs.Open("serverIP:myFile.fp7", "accountName", "myPassword")

Thank you for any help

You cannot open a hosted file directly with Active X. You can connect to one (it has to be open first). You can open a local file (the local file can run a script to open a hosted file)
