Sort page
When records are displayed to users, those records can appear in a
particular sorted order. See “Setting sort options” on page 11-13 for
more information.
Database security
You can control access to your database. This limits who can use your
file, as well as what they can do. There are two types of database security
available using FileMaker Pro Web Companion:
1 FileMaker Pro access privileges
1 Web security databases
Important For a list of security considerations see “Security
considerations before you publish a database” on page 11-6.
FileMaker Pro access privileges
If you have specified FileMaker Pro access privileges for your file, those
same access privileges are in effect when you publish your database on
the Web.
