Figure 6-11. Container fields must be optimized for “Interactive content” before you can use the
Insert PDF command. If you don't need to see the contents of a PDF displayed inside the container
field, you can skip this step and just use the Insert file choice instead.
Exporting Data from Container Fields
Inserting files into container fields is all well and good, but it's just as important to get them
back out again. To use the file in another program, click in the container field and then
choose Edit→Export Field Contents. FileMaker asks you where you want to put the file and
what to name it. Click Save, and FileMaker creates a new file that's an exact copy of the one
you put in the container field. For a refresher on exporting, see the box on Getting the Most
Out of Your Fields .
