This plug-in is a small solution to a big problem. Now you can manage your files with your existing FileMaker solution.

For instance, store references to all corresponding files for one customer (Word documents, Excel sheets etc) in your FileMaker customer database. Easily find, open and organize documents related to that one customer directly out of FileMaker.

launch.it 2 lets you import file paths in two ways. Show a File Open dialog to let users locate a certain file or let them select a complete folder instead and import all files from it using a simple FileMaker script. Fully customizable file type filters ensure that only relevant file types are imported.

This FileMaker plug-in is fully scriptable from external functions. This allows you to set the plug-in specific preferences directly from your existing FileMaker solution.

launch.it is a straightforward plug-in which is easy to use and implement. Providing a few well documented functions, this plug-in makes linking FileMaker records to external files a snap for every FileMaker user.

I have been using launch.it for the last couple of days. I downloaded the trial version of launch.it and within minutes I was opening external files with ease. I'm going to buy the plug-in . It works great.
