No puzzled look

I'm an advanced FileMaker Pro user and developer (since 14 years). Every now and than I run into something like - how on earth can I do that ? Just take your book of the shelf and I don't have that puzzled look on my face anymore after reading the needed section. Indeed, for me you have done your job. Give us more !!!! ...

FileMaker® Pro 5 Bible

I am a long time FileMaker Pro user and this book has been a huge help. It provides all the basics and explains what is new about FileMaker 5. It also gives information on many advanced FileMaker techniques like scripts, functions, and web interface. Schwartz states things simply and logically, and makes them easy to understand. Using this information, our nonprofit organization has been able to save thousands of dollars in the last few months by managing mailing lists, controlling duplicates when combining lists, and pulling target groups.

does anybody know

This seems to be the definitive guide to Filermaker. I agree. But does anyone know anyone out there who actually has a job writing Filemaker Pro. I have never actually seen a job advertised in any major paper. Or for that matter met anyone who actually makes a living cranking out FM code.

The Zen Of FileMaker Pro Charting

Steven Schwartz has gotten under my skin with how to generate charts in FileMaker Pro (3,4 or 5) using Excel or the X2Max XMCHART Plug-In. By the way that plug-in makes BEAUTIFUL charts. A Demo copy is on the CD!
