24_FileMaker Pro samples

Developers often show people invoicing systems and grids of data.  
While that might be very interesting to other code junkies, it can put the rest of 
the world to sleep.  I can do that too, but I hope this presentation makes 
important issues clear and doesn't cause eyelids to droop.

For example, if you are familiar with Craigslist...



If you are familiar with a recipe file...
Recipe on the left, ingredients on the right, generate a grocery list below.



These examples may seem simplistic, but the concepts that run them are 
the same as larger more complex systems.  They contain related tables, 
filtered portals, calculations and scripts, custom reporting, and 
interaction with real-time web data.  All functions inherent in every 
contract manager, invoicing system, or inventory control program 
that you can dream up.



FileMaker Pro is at home on the Mac, PC, iPhone, iPad and the web.
