A Brave, New World

Without wanting to resort to hyperbole, we feel that FileMaker Pro 7 represents a dramatic step forward for FileMaker. This version includes a wide range of impressive changes to the platform, and this book is being written while the software is still in an alpha and beta state. We have done our best to research and double-check everything we present here, but do please keep in mind that some aspects of the software may change by the time this book reaches your hands. We encourage you to use Appendix A, "Additional Resources," as a means of finding online information about FileMaker Pro and if you're new to the platform, welcome to a great community!
