To add auxiliary files to the solution:
1. In the second panel of the FileMaker Pro Binder application, click the
Add file button.
You can specify all the solution files at once by dragging them on top
of the FileMaker Binder application. You can also drag auxiliary files
directly into the second Binder application panel.
2. Browse through the contents of your hard disk until you locate the
files you want to be auxiliary files.
3. Click the Open button (Windows) or the Add button (Mac OS).
4. Click Next to move to the next Binder panel.
Tip To ease navigation for your end users, you can place a “Main Menu”
or “Home” button in all auxiliary files so end users can easily return to
the primary file. Or, create a startup script that moves the end user to the
primary file in each auxiliary file.
Choosing binding options
There are a number of binding options you can set that change the
behavior of the runtime application and solution files.
Important Some options, such as selecting the Permanently remove access
to Define Fields, Define Relationships, ScriptMaker, and Access Privileges
option or running the solution in Kiosk mode, will render parts of the
solution files unmodifiable after binding.
