    Opening remotely from another database

    well no neccesarily a desktop icon, they would open a file maker file that would act as a "main menu" that would open the specified file (depending on which button they clicked) remotely

    Opening remotely from another database

    We are all running 8.5 on both mac osx and windows xp, My supervisor would like to have that index page which i feel is unneccesary, I guess it would be all for looks. How do i make sure that when they open it from the index page the file will be opened remotely through the server?

    Opening remotely from another database

    I have a database that has scripts to open other databases, It is a database index if you will. I was wondering if i could have it open the other databases from the server with just a click of a button without having to go through the open remote menu. I have it this way because my supervisor...

    script problem

    amount of files a datbase can hold

    how much space does a database allocate? I want to limit the amount of files the user can put into the database and make sure it does not exceed the amount of space filemaker has for files.

    adding different number of fields for different records

    I have made a layout that will act as a folder that holds either excel files or images. Each record may have different number of files associated with them, i.e. one will have 2 excel files and 3 images, another may have just one image file. To store these i would put them into a container. I...

    java.lang.NullPointerException...

    I believe you can also fix your problem by doing dob = new Calendar(); dob.set(parameters...); (assuming that Calendar has a default constructor written and set is a public mutator in the calendar class) since you declared an instance of Calendar (dob) at the top you never initialized its...

    alias variables vs variable references.

    I have one of his books that i used as a "reference" no pun intended, but i believe he uses references. It is just one of those things that are not consitent with all programmers but you must know they mean the same thing. Similarly in the way in java where reference, address (in memory)...
