connect FrameMaker and Access database

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Wim,

Over the last 8 years, I have written almost 270 FrameScript scripts that
use ODBC to connect to data sources, including databases, spreadsheets, and
text files. They are all somewhat custom, since requirements vary, but they
can be adapted to almost any situation. Please let me know if you have any
questions or comments. Thank you very much.

Hi Framers,

I have a client who wants to make a connection between FrameMaker and the
companies Access SQL database. Goal is to flexible publish catalogues, parts
lists, product info etc.

This is not unique, so I guess there are solutions or examples of similar
projects. If any of you has some experience with an existing solution or
tool that could be used (or rather not be used ..), I'd appreciate if you
let  me know (off list).

I'd also be interested to hear if anyone built a solution using FrameScripts
ODBC options.


Thanks,

Kind regards, vriendelijke groet,

Wim Hooghwinkel
