Database Reference
In-Depth Information
Figure 20-4. In FileMaker Go, you add a Host the same way as in FileMaker Pro. Put the Domain
Name or IP address in the Host Address field, and add an optional name to help you keep your
servers straight. The iPad's keyboard (cropped out here) automatically appears to help you enter
your data.
The iPhone and iPod Touch have the same features, but since these devices have less screen
space, they arrange them a little differently (
Figure 20-5
).
Once you've opened a database, using it on a mobile device is much like working with it on
your desktop. You can browse through records, perform finds, switch layouts, and click but-
tons to run scripts. You can do anything in FileMaker Go that's allowed by the privilege set
attached to the account and password you used to log in with.
Figure 20-6
shows the Invoice
database's Customers layout on FileMaker Go for the iPad.
