Talboy Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I'm using an FM12 Enhanced Container to store client docs. If I drop pdf or image files into the container they are interactive. That is to say I can scroll down the pages of a pdf in the container, even movies play in the container. However Word or Excel docs are only displayed as an icon and so I must export them before I am able to view them. I do have MS Word & Excel 2011 for Mac installed. My question is: Is this normal behaviour or is there something wrong with my setup? I have googled this issue but cannot confirm either way. Help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

jbante Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 FileMaker container fields do not support treating Word or Excel documents as interactive content. Your setup is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talboy Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 OK, thanks jbante. I had a feeling that might be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
