FMP interfaces may installed on each user machine, or hosted on FMP Server.

* If installing on each user machine, simply follow the directions below, beginning with "FMP Interface Installation Files".
* If hosting FMP interfaces on FMP Server, you will only need to install the FMP software on each user machine, not the interfaces themselves.  Each interface hosted on FMP server will need to be configured for FMP network sharing via File > Sharing > Filemaker Network.  To access the interfaces, users will open FMP and select one of the hosted interfaces via File > Open Remote...

    FMP Installation Steps 

    1. Install ODBC Driver

    ODBC driver may need to be installed on all machines accessing the database, not just FileMaker server. CASG discovered that the Execute SQL script step used in many of the FileMaker scripts will run only when a DSN on a local machine is present. CASG has not discovered a way to use the server DSN to run Execute SQL script.

    2. Add ODBC Data Source (you'll need to go through this twice, once for 'proposal_cycle_2' (RFP db) and once for 'mitsg' (PM db))
