I guess I've got a pretty easy question: I've set up a filemaker 7 server and installed filemaker 7 pro on a citrix server. Now, I would like to publish several database files, so users just have to click the published content to access their fm7 database. I've already tried with the following program path "C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Pro 7\FileMaker Pro.exe" fmnet:/<hostname>/<filename> but this didn't do the trick. Actually, the question is: is there a way to open a remote file on a filemaker server via the run command or command prompt (so without opening filemaker pro first -> open -> remote -> and then select preferrable file)?

thanks in advance for any help,

Joeri

Hi Joeri,

(I've deleted the duplicate copy of this post in FM7 Products.)

You can use the following trick to get Citrix to open a specific FileMaker Doc, instead of just opening the FileMaker Application to the select a file prompt...

Under properties under application location tab>command line

"C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Pro 7\FileMaker Pro.exe" "0.0.0.0:\yourlauncherfile.fp7"

HTH.
