Users on our FM Pro 7 network cannot open documents that appear in portals (all documents are stored in container fields in a seperate database). I am the only one who can access these documents because they are all stored on my machine. When a remote users tries to open the document, they get a "source link not available". I did some searching on the FM support website and it said that I should "map the drive of the other machine", how is that done? Any suggestions would be a great help.
 
1. share the folder where your files are on the 'host/server'
2. map the drive to that shared folder from other 'users'
