[Zope] Filemaker Pro 5.5 ODBC and Zope

[Jim Washington]

Things I needed to know and finally figured out, and this may not be the 
only possible solution though I think I tried every other combination:

1.  Apparently, the Local Database Companion is invisible to ODBC, and 
connections fail.
2.  When the Remote Database Companion is used, everything works as 
advertised.
3.  You do not need to specify individual Filemaker files to the ODBC 
setup.  Give it a single name, and properly shared open files will 
appear as tables to SQL under that DSN.  Do specify a "remote 
connection" with the server's address.

System: Zope-2.4.0, Win2kServer, FMPro5.5, ZODBCDA3.1.0b2
