I have interfaced FileMaker to CFMX & done a limited amount of testing.

I think you want to avoid using filemaker as an online db (similar  
reasons to those for avoiding MS-Access).

What you could do is use CFMX to convert the FileMaker data into some  
other online RDBMS (free or proprietary)

It will take me a while to dig up the info on how to do this -- I will  
post later.
