Got the CCS Studio 2.0 (final release) and FileMaker 6.04 on Windows XP Pro
(all updates up to date).

How should the Database Connection in CCS 2.0 Studio be set up to work with
Filemaker?

Tried your solutions files (Bookstore) with teh MS Access database, works
fine!
Have made Security setup stuff as explained in the common errors section,
does not help!
I have successfully imported data through ODBC from FileMaker to MS Excel
from the same Filemaker source, so the ODBC setup made in the Windows
control panel should be OK?!

Any suggestions?

Rememeber that for FileMaker's ODBC connections to work, the databases must
be open, the Web Companion plug in must be "checked" and Web sharing for the
database you want to access must be enabled.

Hope this helps.

Yes, i can import data to Excel through the ODBC connection I´ve set up, but
it doesnt work with CCS (I am a total newbie with CCS, I must say). I can
see the table, select fields etc in CCS, but when published the connection
for some reason lost, somewhere in the process. I have issued a question to
Yes about this!

I just wanted to know if anyone actually had tried to use FileMaker as a
data source.

Thx anyway!

Not I.... so far I have only used MS-SQL with CodeCharge.

I have used FileMaker as an ODBC Source with Clarion & Crystal Reports, and
I was disappointed with the performance with both.
