I am testing File Maker Pro for a month free. I am testing Revolution
2.6 free for a month.
I am trying to do a revOpenDatabase("ODBC","",CWData)
where the FMP7 database in on my local machine. In "User DSN" of ODBC
Administrator I have CWData in the Name and "File Maker Pro" in the
Driver.
In Drivers of ODBC Admin. I have File Maker Pro in the Driver and
/Users/dlw/Library/ODBC/SequeLink.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ivslk18.dylib
in the Driver File.
I have three items in /Users/dlw/Library/ODBC namely
SequeLink.bundle
odbc.ini
odbcinst.ini
Permissions for /Users/dlw/Library/ODBC and all included files are
set to Read Write for everyone.
SequeLink came from the download fm_7_osx_xdbc_7.0.5.317.sit from the
File Maker site.
When I execute revOpenDatabase("ODBC","",CWData) I get
executing at 6:36:22 PM
Type Function: error in function handler
Object Try
Line put revOpenDatabase("ODBC","",CWData) into theDB
Hint revOpenDatabase
I have tried various other combinations of arguments to
revOpenDatabase suggested by the help information but without success.
What puzzles me is where the actual FMP database name is entered. I
have tried it as a string in the third position but without success.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I can get this to work I
will be very happy and I will buy both products.
I was successful in converting my HyperCard stack and getting it to
access FMP via AppleScript but I want to develope a cross platform
product.
