Using FileMaker 13 WebDirect for Registration or Creating a Survey
[st_row id_wrapper=”elm_5faddb04ab77b” ][st_column span=”span12″ id_wrapper=”elm_5faddb04ab730″ ][st_text]If you are using FileMaker Server 13…then you can easily setup a Survey or Registration web page that fills information directly into your FileMaker database… without any programming. The trick is to get the browser to “auto-login” to a WebDirect page. This video will walk you through the process of setting this up. This video also shows you how to hide the toolbar and the menu bar…so the user cannot “see” they are in FileMaker. Very Cool!!!
