Problems using Filemaker as database source for Orcad CIS

[sharif razif]

Hi,

Has anybody used Filemaker as database source for Orcad?

Problems:

1. when trying to place database part, Filemaker login prompt reappear multiple times depending on the number of tables in the database. 

2. if the Orcad was closed and reopen, it cannot connect to the database and display an error "Database Operation Failed".

    I found a way around this by changing the configuration file(.dbc) to other database type file. for example Access database and then change it back to the previous Filemaker configuration file(.dbc)

    but is there another more efficient way to fix this? 

Thanks and Regards.
