FileMaker Pro, only show thumbnail when wanted

Hi there,

Thanks to all your help I'am almost ready with my FM-script but now I have another question.

When using the new "import records > import folder" option I only use the files references not the full image(s).
And like Gary said the thumbnail field only holds the file's reference-path and not a real image. Because of this, I can hardly use the database anymore. Its so slow! It's constantly using the netwerk connection to the fileserver to get the thumbnail data to show. Most of the time it's suites to only see the little icon-picture, but when needed it would be nice to see the actual (bigger) thumbnail by using the reference-path.

1) Is it possible to speed up the image import, it takes a lot of time.
2) Are there any scripts available that do an image import without using the new import feature and that gives me the possiblitiy to load the large thumbnail when needed. How?
3) I would like to import some more information on the images (like Cumulus does), any suggestions?
4) Or... do I need third-party software for all this?


Thanks,

Pieter van Helvoirt
