I think there may be some confusion as to the term "remote access." By
"remote access" Marshall and the other responders are referring to access to
the database from computers outside the office (like dialing in to the
office from home). This is the technical definition of remote access. To
make this type of accessing efficient fast Internet connections are
essential as Marshall noted.
If by "remote access" you mean, however, that you need more than one
computer in your office to access the database simultaneously, this is quite
easy to do. You will want to have FileMaker on each computer to make this
networking most effective. One computer will host the ebase files; the
other computers will access these files across the network via a feature
built in to the Filemaker software.
