Hosted FMP and ODBC

Sorry, I'm a FMP newbie, so this may be a stupid question:

FMP ver 5.5. Server ver 5.5

We have a large FMP app that is hosted on FMP server. on a daily bases, I'm importing 200k+ records from my SQL database to 1 FMP file. Since the data in the SQL dbase is constantly updating, I would like to use ODBC to show a portal of that data.

All the ODBC examples I've seen so far, only deal with what appears to be desktop files. Since the file is hosted, I can't delete the current data and refresh with the new queried data because another user would lose their information. Due to my newbieness, I'm not sure Globals will work because the data returned could be 1 record or 1000 records.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Patrick
