Open(url)

[Franco Pagano]

Mac osx Maverick last update, Fmp adv_14.04.

This it work if my database ar in the document folder:

"FMP://~/"   &  "MyDatabase" & "?script=MyScript"

I tested a different path  ....."Desktop/MyFolder/".... and it doesn't work:

"FMP://~/"   &  "Desktop/FolderName/MyDatabase" & "?script=MyScript"

My question:

Does is possible to open(url) a file located in ....."Desktop/MyFolder/".... ?

Many thanks

The "~" means the user's documents folder.  So you can not use that AND a path that starts at the Desktop...

Wim many thanks,

Then i can use the same host sintax, just use the desktop path rather then IP?

fmp://{{account:password@}Desktop/MyFolder/}filename{?script=scriptname{&param=scriptparameter}{&$variablename{[repetitionnumber]}=value}}

Am i correct?

other test failed:

fmp adv 13.09 osx 7.5

"FMP://~/"   &  "MyDatabase" & "?script=MyScript"

This should work but it doesn't.
