Our special show reviewing what we have tried in the new FilemakerPro version 10! WOOHOO!!

Elipsis; Conditional script step; simplicity revisited and a bad 4D day.

LayoutNames Function; Constrain and Extend Found Set; IsEmpty and Not IsEmpty; Set Field Script Step.

We're now Filemaker Success Tips! Yeah! Filemaker Development with Vista Vs MacOS; Qutes in a Quote; Cascading Deletes.

Modeless Vs Modal Dialogs, making labels, and Ceiling and Floor functions

Backing up a Filemaker server. Where to find great stuff on the web. Building an application template so you don't start from scratch.

Andy finally plays with FMTouch, we revisit working on a live system, Lee talks about Modify Last Find and Dwayne talks about archiving layouts.

How to build a proper dialog box; handling sensitive data; Using Wildcards in doing finds and Parsing text.

A custom UnixTimeStamp function; Naming conventions; a discussion on Conditional Formatting, then Lee talks about how to put together a fake database.

Dwayne joins us to talk more about tricks in layout building; Lee talks about using the Data Viewer for object property display and we  discuss developing  design specifications.

How to do Project definition, ins and outs of Instant Web Publishing and putting all your prefs and config stuff in an encapsulated area for easy reuse.

Trick or treat? Working on a dB while it's in use, selling Filemaker development in a tough economy, the Normal Forms... ouch!

Our 60 second promo.

What to say while in front of a client when it goes all wrong, an update of our data migration project and different kinds of Q/A.

A great clip from a listener then we talk about Lookups and discuss techniques in scripting and developing scripts for reuse.

Andy and Lee get into who's fault is it when the user pushes the wrong button. Then we talk about using a digital voice recorder for capturing customer related info and using Filemaker Server during development.

Why you need to try something new outside your production project as a prototype. A tip for how to prevent a user from closing a window on a PC and also closing the application inadvertently. We also discuss real cool tips for fast layout work.

Lee talks about who is the ideal point person from the client side to work with. We talk about the differences one runs into when running a file from PC to Mac and how to avoid problems. We also take a first time discussion on the Relationship Graph.

Inheriting somebody else's work.  The value of simplicity in your application design. We also start describing our data migration project using FM to go from one SQL dB to another.

In this show we talk about contracts, the value of the Filemaker Maintenance agreement and building a runtime executable with FilemakerPro Advanced.

Andy and Lee discuss the concept of a "database" and get into how Filemaker has evolved into meeting this concept via the development of a "Separation" model with data/tables in one or more seperate files from forms and reports. They also discuss why it's a very good idea to do development using the Advanced version of FilemakerPro.

Lee and Andy talk about tips for designing your approach to user navigation within your solution. We also talk about the usefulness of the "Evaluate" function as well as using the import capability between tables within a solution.

Our first show! We talk about using a special table for design notes to get feedback from users during your solutions operation; the "Get" functions; and how to test your application while in a specific privilege setting which may not have full admin access.
