Open Parameter??

[Kirt C]

I'm looking setup a shortcut on a windows desktop with a URL pointing to my IP and database, eg: fmp7://0.0.0.0/Database

With this in mind, I would also like to pass it parameters such as a record ID. Is this possible?

If not this way, another?

Goal: Open a FileMaker database remotely, pass it a parameter and run a start up script immediately processing that paramter

Example: Open Client database with parameter ID=1, query record where ID=1 on open.

Thanks for any feedback!

You could use a local FileMaker file as a launcher. Then it's a simple matter of creating a script:

Perform Script(your hosted file; your script; your parameter)

Set this as the file's startup script.
