Default function for accessing a database

Hi,

Look at the command Data, Import External Data, New Database Query

I have not worked with Filemaker so at this point you are on your own.

If the drive for Filemaker is listed select it and click OK, if not try <New
Data Source , OK and type a name in the first box and then open the second
drop down and see if there is a driver there for it.

If not you may need to contact Filemaker's help line and see if they have
drivers.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire
