Search the Adobe site for "framemaker database" or "framemaker database publishing" -- there are a number of third party products that drop into place.

Also, Rick Quatro at frameexpert.com has FrameScripts that you can plug in.

Researching either of these should give you some ideas of how to accomplish it yourself if you'd rather create your own solution.

Zhao Peng,

How to collect data from third applications is nothing the FDK must care about. You use the FDK to insert the data into FrameMaker documents.

E.g., with the FrameScript plug-in comes a module that implements ODBC database access, so I am pretty sure you can do as well on your own using C. Depending on the database access method you choose, you have to look there for documentation.

Yes. In other words, the FDK has no built-in database interface support, so you'll need to research how to interface with the database using C, then pass the data into FrameMaker using FDK methods. This is another thing I haven't done before so unfortunately can't be any more helpful.
