resource fork, and now HTML is busy re-inventing it as CSS.

Filemaker itself cannot do this, but as I've already written, MS has 
somewhre on their sites a FMP plug-in that allows to both export and 
inport to/from FMP to/from Access. This plug-in requires at least FMP 
7.x or later.

NOTE. There are two versions of this plug-in - a carbon for OS 9 and FMP 
up to ver. 6.x. A carbon ver. which allows to use the plug-in with the 
OS X ver. 6.x of FMP and the newest ver. for OS X 10.4.x and later and 
FMP 7.x or later.

I've setup networks with this plug-in for a medical neurological 
specialist so he is able to access his homeoffice running Mac + 
Filemaker directly from the hospital where they are running Windows with 
MSAccess and it fuctions very good and reliable.

Cheers, Erik Richard
