We're wondering about the feasibility of using SPSS [PASW] 18 to extract
data via ODBC from FileMaker ('Pro 11 Advanced') but have hit a snag. With
a confirmed ODBC DSN and FileMaker internal privileges & permissions set,
we obtained these results on a Windows XP system:
Simple test database (3 rows, 2 columns):
Worked with Excel 2007(which successfully read the FM data via ODBC);
SPSS merely displayed column headings and wouldn't fetch data.
More complex test database didn't work at all:
Excel 2007 displayed an hourglass (which we terminated after 1/2 hour).
SPSS recognized table-occurrences, displayed column headings, no data.
Any comments would be much appreciated.
version numbers:
FM 11.0.2.0, FM ODBC driver 11.0.61
SPSS ('PASW') 18.0.0
