July 26, 201015 yr Is there anything in the new version for Filemaker to find the Jpeg if the original Jpeg was moved and it was store in a filemaker record as a reference? Is there maybe a plugin or something that can find the jpeg and restore the link?
July 26, 201015 yr Author i wouldn't even know how to do this, but the jpeg could move between 5 different folders. I should check the internet for plugins..
July 26, 201015 yr Nestor, FM stores a path to the referenced image. Insert File with Save as Reference checked captures that path. There is no way to have FM "find" a referenced file if the path is broken. You need to update the path stored in FM to the correct path. Why are the files moving (outside of FM)? As for plugins that handle files outside of FM, the most referenced (I haven't used it, personally) is 360works Supercontainer. However, that too will expect the file to not be moved unless FM is informed.
July 27, 201015 yr You are in luck. I had the same problem and found the solution here: Link I was able to use this script to embed the pictures into my database.
