1 The FileMaker Pro or FileMaker Server Advanced host application has been set up for sharing
via ODBC/JDBC.
To share a FileMaker database file as a data source, use FileMaker Pro to define accounts that
need access to the database file. Then, control access to the database file by assigning
privilege sets to the accounts, including the extended privilege of access via ODBC/JDBC.
Finally, enable the FileMaker
Server Advanced or FileMaker Pro host application to share data
via ODBC/JDBC. For details, see FileMaker Pro Help.
1 The JDBC client driver registration and the JDBC URL are correct (the driver can be included
inside the Java Application or located on the client machine).
