Sample Copy is now hosted on your computer. You must keep this file open to make it available to users on

To open a remote file:

1. Choose File menu > Open Remote.

2. For View, select Local Hosts to see a list of hosts.

If your computer is not on a network or if there are no FileMaker Pro files currently being hosted, no 

files are listed in the Open Remote File dialog box. 

3. Select the host, then the file.

4. Click Open.

Depending on how file sharing is set up on the host computer, you might have to enter an account name, 
password, and domain name (Windows only) to open the remote file.
