ODBC Import technique | FileMaker - 1-more-thing

ODBC Import technique | FileMaker - 1-more-thing | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it
In this blog post, I will share a technique that Laurent Spielmann (@laurent_at_joes) and I developed together and that greatly simplifies imports.

It uses ODBC import.

Have you never been bothered by inconsistent database structures between a data source and your own application?

Have you never cursed the SQL developer who uses as a unicity key a concatenation of several columns?

Have you never felt anxiety before renaming a field because it could break an import order?

Have you never lost your temper in front of a progress bar during a sync operation on a ESS table?

If you answered no to all of these, I’m jealous. This article is for the rest of us.
