September 22, 201015 yr i am shocked before release of 11 i said database unsafe i saw runtime i thought its safe , recently i got thought full access privleges set account with runtime safe i checked boom its unsafe ---- we can know admin account in runtime solutions too. obviously people will say remove admin account i think it wouldn`t be right advice :
September 22, 201015 yr A runtime has neither less nor more security than the full FMP client: a run-time is simply a cut-down version of the client. The runtime is NOT the database itself but he application that opens it.
September 25, 201015 yr Author managing databases,value lists ,and editing layouts ,isn`t possible in runtime solution logged in with admin account i didn`t understand why in runtime with standard menu sets with full acess i coudln`t manage or edit my runtime database--- if this isn`t possible why did fm developers keep the option remove admin account in developer utilities when it useless in runtime (exceptionally). : can anyone clarify my query if am wrong plz forgive me because i am new user to fm if i am wrong can anyone give me the solution please
September 25, 201015 yr The runtime does not allow define fields and scripts, correct. Thus the fact that it is a "runtime". The database that is paired to the runtime can be opened at any time with a normal copy of FileMaker Pro, and if opened the fields and scripts etc can be edited. Removing the full access account from a runtime means that the structure cannot be edited, and it will not be possible to see inside the file to see how it works, which offers security for the protection of the file's IP.
