A very simple task: mirror file

[dylanls]

Dear all,

I am trying to create a mirror of a database.

So basically a secondary file that only needs to display 3 fields from the primary file.

This secondary file will be shared through IWP so users can see the content of the primary file.

What is the best way to do this? Right now, i have added the table (table A) from the primary file to the relationships tab in the secondary file.

I create a new layout, choose to display fields from table A, and the data shows up fine.

The problem is that under IWP, it shows no records. I have tried many different things to no avail. All access rights, sharing settings etc are correct, so i expect i am doing something wrong with the relations between the 2 files.

Hence my question: what is the best way to create a mirror / ghost file?

Thanks in advance.

can anyone point me in the right direction?

Why do you have a secondary file? You can use the original file and only use certain layouts for IWP.

No wonder. I will use now the original file. Thanks.
