"How i create connection with FileMaker pro 5"

Featured Replies

Hi there,

i m working with FileMaker pro 5 on mac.

For automation of database, i want to create connection with FM pro 5 database file.

is there ODBC provide for FileMaker pro 5?

how would this will possible on mac.

pls help me about this.

Regards:

Coolbdy

Yes ODBC was around at least for FMP 6 (which is compatible with 5.0 and 5.5). However on a Mac today it would be highly likely that the drivers won't be compatible with the current OS. My advice would be to convert to FMP 11 and do it in the newer version.

Is this to support a legacy system, or as a learning exercise?

If it's a learning exercise: why learn on a version that is now several years old and essentially obsolete?
