[FX.php List] Folder path?

[Tom Sepper]

Maybe this is a dumb questions, but why would you want to store your production database on an external drive in the first place? I can definitely understand the reasons for backing up to an external drive, but not for the actual database.  IO certainly would suffer if done.

I want to start using an external HD for a database folder on my FMSA  
machine; assuming my machines are labelled as:

FMServer - machine itself

HD -- external drive

Databases - folder on the external drive

I keep trying to use

filemac:/FMServer/HD/Databases/

but that doesn't work. I also tried

filemac:/HD/Databases

and that doesn't work either. What am I missing here??

Thanks,

Bob
