If you don't mind, post back if you can get them to help resolve it.
Good Luck,

- Hi Adaryl,
- Check out this link:
- http://www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/ts/documents/filemakerdw.htm
- It explains how to set up an odbc connection to filemaker for use with ASP pages, but if you follow the directions to set up the data source on your CF server, the administrator should recognize the datasource.
- Hope that helps,
- Ramsey

- Get them to upgrade? Sure, but it involves flying pigs and a backwards rotating earth. No seriously, this thing is the heart of the organziation. If i were to replicate it it would have to be updated every minute. But it is something I can look into, at this point Im not tossing any idea out. FM is pretty low powered im not even certain it has something akin to replication services.

- Adaryl,
- A few thoughts, try tricking CF & Filemaker. Maybe you can use an MS SQL odbc driver/connector. Or, maybe you can setup some form of replication or linking between say, Access or MS SQL and the FileMaker. Then, use CF to access the new DB.
- Can you just force them to upgrade to a different database?

- Greetings all,
- I work in a primarily Mac environment (yes i know..pray for me). The organization has a database in FileMaker Pro 5 (on Mac of course) that is mission critical (I bet you already know what Im going to ask). The first time I tried to access it 2 summers ago from CF which sits on Win2k server it was not possible. I was wondering if in the year and a half since someone has created a working ODBC driver or is there anybody else that has some sort of workaround? I'm all over the internet without much luck.
