I really don't have a choice. I have to connect to an existing
Filemaker database that is actively being used. I do currently use
WOOF with Filemaker 6 which works well, but the database is being
upgraded to Filemaker 10. I couldn't get any information saying that
WOOF supported 10. I was going to use the default driver, but maybe I
should test out the WOOF driver and see what happens.
Thanks,
Sherry

Hi Sherry,
There is also an opensource framework <https://woof.dev.java.net/>
that will allow you to connect WebObjects to Filemaker. I don't know
how well it works, but it used to be a commercial product. If you
could tell us which option you choose and how successful it is, that
would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Sherry,
From Oracle to FileMaker. You sure do run the gamut of tools
there! :-)
If you just need to work with a snapshot, FrontBase has a FileMaker
to FrontBase migration tool. That would give you a real SQL92
database to work with.

You'd be happier if you went CamelCase, but I recommend against
FileMaker + WO. There are lots of gotchas; the FileMaker JDBC
driver is pretty weak.

Hello,
I have to interface with a Filemaker database which has spaces in
a majority of the attribute names. Entity Modeler does not like
this. My thought is to replace the spaces with underscores. Does
anyone have any recommendations/suggestions or know if this will
work?
Is there anyone else out there that uses Filemaker with WO?
Thanks,
Sherry
