Building An Fmnet Link

[David Zakary]

I need to pass a couple of parameters in an FMNET link for an email being sent from FileMaker 11. Yes it could be done with a snapshot link, but we want a text link in the body of the email.

I can't find any documentation for passing parameters (like a record number, etc.)

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hi David,

What's an fmnet link? Are you talking about the fmp7:// url syntax to open a hosted file?

In that case: can't be done through that alone. You could probably pull it off by constructing a CWP url that creates a record in a holding table so that when the user opens the solution (through an fmp7 url or otherwise) the 'on open' script goes to that holding table, reads the data and directs the user to where you want him.

But a snapshot is your easiest option.
