Hi All,
I have 2 separate databases set up on a small PTP network using FMP7 for
both databases
I want to do table lookups on one db from the other db across the netwok.
Obviously in this case FMP7 is going to be both a Client and a Source. My
questions
1. Because I am communicating between FMP7's only do I have to install a
driver
2. If so where do I find the driver and how do I install it
3. Do I have to install the driver in both Client and Source FMP7's
4. Because FMP7 networks only allow 6 users (Host + 5 Remotes) per database,
will a Client making a SQL request to a Source cause the user count on the
Source machine to step up by 1

Don't use ODBC between FM databases. Set them both to be multiuser, host
them both, and do the lookups directly using the Field definitons in FM.

Hi Lynne,
As always, you have something good to say. I did not realise that I could
make Table Relationships across db's. I tried it and it is simple. Thank you
Best Regards Ron H.
