FM Pro 8.5 import / export MS Sharepoint ?

[dbota]

Can a FM Pro 8.5 Adv. client database on an OS X workstation import / export to MS Sharepoint (Sharepoint Services/ Windows Server 2003) ?

Or do you have to use a MS Access client DB ?

I don't have any experience using sharepoint, but if it allows data transfers via ODBC then, in theory, you should be able to use FMP to move data back and forth.

Sharepoint generally is backended with MS SQL server, and FM has connections for MS SQL server.

Using a direct connection to the Sharepoint databases is not recommended. Microsoft has a suite of .NET objects that allow you to manage information properly in the Sharepoint store. This approach of course requires a .NET application to function properly.
