Taking a break from bird prep activities to check the mail.
Lots of interesting advice and commentary.
Some replies to comments:
I have FMP Developer. Doing a hybrid would be no problem on that account. The interesting part, which I have not thought too deeply on would be networking the 'solution' from FMP's perspective. Last I looked they didn't like stand-alones to be networkable. [Note: I've abused them over this and other such failings on FMI's part.]
I might have to knuckle-down and do the database thing inside of Rev in order to overcome that issue.
Follow-on questions, after perusing the tutorial:
[1] Can I declare an object to be a button? And run scripts when it is clicked on?
[2] The Enterprise version is ODBC-aware? Then I should be able to find a way to hook into it via AppleScripting for changing data. However, command/control and inter-operability with other apps would still be something of an issue.
[3] How does Rev deal with the passage of time and Idle() activities? Can it be set to check for a change in status? Or does it require an outside agent to activate a script? Example: Every 60 seconds do myCheck(). Or does something have to nudge it, as an external applescript would do by calling a ScriptMaker script inside of an FMP datafile?
Back to the bird.
Thanks,
Chuck
