texte = I am developing a solution for one of our clients that uses Filemaker Pro in house to automate their work flow. They would like to up date thier Webcatalog database in 'batches' at intermittent intervals, from once a day to once a week. They also can only connect at 56k. The have 30 odd different databases to maintain.There 'IS person' would FTP a file exported from FileMaker that would end up as an [include] file with a [replace &append=T] context and all the properly formatted code for such a function.Once they uploaded the include file(s) to a designated folder they would go to a web page with a [listfiles] context of that folder. They could then use radio buttons to choose which files to [append] and submit that to a page that would include those file(s) and of course execute them.That page that would execute the include files would loop through them until all were updated then move those [include] files to an other folder as an archive.Does anyone have a better idea? Has anyone had to do this?------------------------------------------------------------- Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server. To end your Mail problems go to
