<font size='+1'>LIMITED-TIME DEVCON DISCOUNT</font><br />
<br />
With the hustle and bustle of DevCon drawing near, FMPug has been working doggedly to secure some extraordinary membership perks…for attendees and beyond!<br />
<br />
FMPug has worked with FileMaker Inc to extend their early-bird discount exclusively for members of FMPug and TechNet. Act now and SAVE $200 -- the offer ends on July 10, 2009! The discount is open to all members who have yet to register for this annual meeting of FileMaker minds. This year's DevCon is sponsored by our good friends at Excelisys*, Fusion Reactor** and Soliant Consulting *** and will offer over 60 sessions and workshops, including three concurrent tracks: Core Fundamental, Design/Development and Web/Integration. DevCon is the #1 place to learn, share ideas and network with fellow users and developers from around the world. And this year, it's all taking place in one of the most exciting cities in the world. DevCon is fast approaching, so don’t delay, the discount ends on July 10, 2009! To take advantage of this member-only benefit, follow these three easy steps:<br />

As you browse through the exhibitor showcase, keep in mind being an FMPug member carries with it an added benefit -- savings! We'll keep you posted; the participating vendors, their respective discount, how to save at the show and the (printable) badge will be published directly on your Member Home page in the coming months! So keep your eyes peeled and be sure to check-in for ongoing updates.<br />

For the 3rd year in a row, the DevCon Scheduler will make its appearance to help attendees navigate the conference center, maintain your personal schedule and find friends, where ever they maybe -- all by way of your handheld internet device of choice. Open to ALL attendees, the DevCon Scheduler is a fantastic, super-easy tool that will certainly prove itself a valuable side-kick while at the show. Check-out some of the newer features:<br />

When these solutions are moved to FileMaker® Pro 10, the ability of users to customize the status area can lead to unexpected and undesired results and potentially to incorrect report results.  A new mini White Paper offers one solution to that issue.  That paper can be downloaded here.<br />

These have included the erroneous belief that event triggers cannot be assigned to tabs, confusion about creation of custom menus in files created in earlier versions, and issues with users changing passwords.<br />
<br />
Some of these reports seem driven by incomplete understanding of new behaviors.  Yet others reflect changes in behavior.  Still others are clearly issues related to the new products.<br />

I commend to everyone’s attention a new FileMaker Tech Info that addresses many of these items.  It is found here:<br />
