Exporting DATA in FMP with password

[fed]

Is there any way to export DATA in FMP format with password protection?

No, sorry.

Unless there is a plugin that does it, but I doubt FileMaker will have allowed plugin developers to get under the hood of the plugin architecture.

You could however store an empty, password-protected, template file with the right data structure in. Then, when you want to export password-protected data, run scripts to:

1) make a copy of that empty file

2) open it

3) do an import from your main file of the data you want

4) close it

5) do whatever else with it (email it, archive it, whatever)

Hope that helps.

Yours

Thanks for the idea.

I've decided on using Scriptmaster's encryption. It works great!!!
