Not to worry. I am able to connect to it as a datasource. ODBC and JDBC. I have not tried it on my OSX box yet just windows.
I am in a 7 training class for advanced developers all this week so I will probably not have a change to post to extensive a list of new stuff etc but there is a lot to look at here and a lot of opportunity for witango and custom web publishing. Server 7 is not till the summer so a lot of performance issues will have to wait and development of course wont make sense to use client application when you really want to connect to server. But I plan on doing some preliminary testing and on having more to say about that later and something to bring to Filemaker DEVCON in terms of Witango. Dan You won't get to far with FMP support right now they will be overwhelmed handling calls from current FMP users and developers who never really understood relational databases and now really do need to understand that in order to take advantage of the new features of FMP 7. I have been working with it for the last 18 months so between that and this class I am glad to be a resource for the list. ---- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > It looks as if there are some very good new features but the support > lines at Filemaker NOW say (I have been in an ongoing dialog with > them today) it cannot be used at all now with Witango.
