by Chris Kubica
From Book News, Inc. says:
"Written for the computer literate beginner, this guide explains the structure and capabilities of relational databases and how to create one for a specific business application with FileMaker Pro. Step-by- step instructions are provided for defining fields, designing layouts, creating records, entering data, printing reports, and writing formulas. Later chapters cover sharing databases over the Internet with FileMaker Server, taking databases on the road with FileMaker Mobile, and integrating FileMaker databases with other software. The CD-ROM contains example databases with a folder for each chapter. [Book News, Inc.¨, Portland, OR]
This complete reference to FileMaker Pro takes developers at all levels beyond the user manual to create robust and dynamic database systems from the ground up. It begins with an introduction to the FileMaker Pro development environment and relational databases in general, but also covers advanced topics such as Web-enabling databases, integration with external applications, ODBC, using plug-ins, development standards and project planning techniques, and much more. The CDROM contains hundreds of ready-to-use example files for demonstrating all the techniques and ideas presented in the book.
