Original. (Intermediate). From the Inside Flap This book has been completely revised to provide detailed coverage of the latest release of FileMaker Pro, versions 4.0 and 4.1 which is a fully relational database management system available for the Apple Macintosh and the Windows 95 and Windows 98 operating system for PCIs. This book begins with an introduction to the basic concepts and ideas behind relational theory. It progresses to consider the issues involved in building a successful relational database. The emphasis here is on data modelling and how to ensure that the database model that you use is the most appropriate for your requirements. The second part of this book is a comprehensive description of the features of FileMaker Pro 4.0 and 4.1. It focuses on a range of issues that developers and experienced users alike may encounter and highlights the ways in which FileMaker Pro 4.x provides a number of different approaches to solving problems that may arise. The book is best read while working with FileMaker Pro 4.x so that you can try out some of the ideas and examples included on the accompanying CD-ROM and see the results for yourself. I have done my best to ensure that all examples work, but if you do come across any problems, please contact the publisher. When you have read this book, you will be able to develop successful FileMaker Pro 4.x databases and be familiar enough with the software to be able to discover four yourself what is not explicitly included in the text. As your knowledge and experience grow, you may continue to use the book as a reference source on particular topics. What is important is that I have not attempted to describe every single command exhaustively, nor every method of manipulating data in FileMaker Pro. DonIt forget that FileMaker Pro offers a rich and rewarding development environment and there is always more than one route to solve any given problem.0201360691P04062001 About the Author Alex Kennedy was formerly the Claris European Training Manager based in the UK.
