Description
The External function accesses plug-ins created for versions of FileMaker Pro prior to 7.0
and uses the syntax External(“function name”, parameter), where function
name is in quotes and is the name of an external function.
Plug-ins created for FileMaker Pro version 7.0 and later do not use the
External(“function name”, parameter) syntax. For more information, see
External functions, page 51 and the FileMaker Pro Advanced Development Guide
included with FileMaker Pro Advanced.
