Course Title: FileMaker Pro 9 Intermediate



FileMaker Pro is powerful enough to handle most database jobs yet easy enough to create simple solutions in minutes. This practical "how to" course by FileMaker expert John Mark Osborne, starts from an intermediate level and uses a single invoicing solution to demonstrate FileMaker Pro 7, 8, 8.5 and 9 features and techniques including interface design, relational database design, relationship operators, multiple predicates, table occurrences, portal filters, security, scripts, calculations, FileMaker Pro Advanced, multi-user solutions, record locking, multi-keys and deleting duplicate records. Examples of the invoice file are provided at every stage of the creation process so the user can easily review one section without starting from the beginning. To begin learning today, simply click on one of the FileMaker Pro 9: Intermediate links. The completed invoicing solution included on the beginner, intermediate and advanced (soon-to-be-released) FileMaker Pro 9 training is provided as a visual goal. Upon completion of all three titles, you will have created the exact same invoicing solution. This tutorial is part two in an upcoming 3-part FileMaker Pro 9 series.
