Lesson 11
Sharing and exchanging data
You can share data over a network using FileMaker Pro, FileMaker Server, or via the internet using Instant
Web Publishing. You can also share data by importing it into FileMaker
Pro files from other applications or
exporting it from FileMaker
Pro files to other applications.
In this lesson you will learn:
1 how to enable network sharing of FileMaker Pro files
1 how to import data into a FileMaker Pro file
About sharing data
FileMaker Network Sharing You can share FileMaker Pro databases on your network, which allows up to
nine FileMaker
Pro users to access and use the same database file simultaneously. If you need to share files
with more than 9 concurrent users on a network, you can use FileMaker
Server to share files, which provides
greater networking performance and allows up to 250 users to access a file simultaneously.
Instant Web Publishing You can publish FileMaker Pro layouts as web pages, which allows anyone with
a web browser on your intranet (or the internet) to access your FileMaker Pro databases.
Importing and exporting data You can exchange information between FileMaker Pro and other
applications by importing and exporting data. For example, you can import data that is in another database
or spreadsheet program, or export address data in order to create personalized form letters with a word
processing program. When you import or export data, the data is copied to the destination file, not shared
between the applications.
Enable FileMaker network sharing
If your computer is connected to a network, you and other FileMaker Pro users can use the same database
file simultaneously.
Important Your FileMaker Pro licensing agreement requires that you purchase a license for each separate
computer on which the FileMaker
Pro application is installed. Each software license may not be shared or
used concurrently on different computers. The first person to open a shared file is the host. Any user who
opens a shared file after the host is a client.
