Thanks for your reply, my knowledge of Filemaker is not good enought to 
found an answer for question like:

1. is it possible tu update tstamp field automaticaly ?

2. how filemaker deal with TYPO3 uid and MySQL relation, if the relation 
are in the database and if the relation are in TCA (in this case, I need 
to configuration the relation real name -> uid ... inside Filemaker ... 
but is it possible ?)

3. An external database has the same feature and search capabilities 
than an internal filemaker table ?

I need to do a little lab to found answer for those question, but i 
don't have a lots of time ... so if you can give me some answer, I'll be 
really happy ;-)

Thanks

Dominique
